Sorry to bring this up again but still no luck with 8mb simms (tested most of them on a pentium100 system and all ok, only don't work on the Hawk) , but can i trie to switch the pal ships ? if some are bad then the card won't even boot with 4mb right?
Other question... are they all the same? why are some solded and others mounted?

ps: i'm asking this questions about the Amitek Hawk 8mb/fpu card.
