Maybe the description 386-16MHz is actually supposed to suggest an SX processor.

ad. edit1 -
The computer's emblem shows XEN-S and that's what I suggested, maybe it's actually XEN-i

ad, edit2 - I checked all DIP switches, they are OK !

Is it a 386sx machine ?

See the pic, this is a 386-16 (from before the DX/SX naming, 32b internal and external so would be a DX if Intel's marketing had thought of that yet).

Do you by chance happen to have four 256K 30p simms you could try together with four 1MB ones ?

Unfortunately I don't have it. But I'm worried about the Memory Parity Interrupt error... during HIMEMSYS and the installation of Windows 3.11 - I started a thread in SOFTWARE.
