I got some EDO ram that has 18 chips on both sides of the chip.....

Hey whats up Cliff.

Yeah i have seen chips taller then others.

are they 32Mb sticks by any chance?

and also,check them with just one stick in one time to see if the system will boot.
they may be FPM,not EDO.

It sounds like a 64Mb ECC Simm, that is one with error correction normally used in older servers.

An easy check is to count the legs on the ram chips. 24 pins = 16Mb single sided and 32Mb double sided. 20 pins is 4/8Mb ram.

This normally works except for a few weird Simms that Compaq used with 4 large chips of 2mb each.
