"Two short beeps mean there has been a parity error in base memory. This problem affects the first 64 KB block of memory in your RAM."

"2 short Memory parity error A memory parity error has occurred in the first 64K of RAM. The RAM IC is probably bad"

i wonder if i can over clock the system to 20 mHz?

i have a new issue with the mobo. so i soldered some SIMM memory slots into it and it checked all 4 mb. i ran the computer and there is keyboard glitching i think the keyboard chip gone bad but the entire system overtime locks up or glitches

I had some issues with one of these boards, few years ago. It seemed stable, could leave it in a benchmark all day long, but few minutes idle in DOS and it would lock up... Keyboard still responding, could type some command, but when pressing <enter>, instant freeze.
Also, when quitting some programs it would annoyingly ask for the disk containing COMMAND.COM.
In the end, found out that this board absolutely hates the 3-chip 1MB SIMMs. Found some older ones with 9 chips and all the above problems went away.
