Hello All,
I have a 5170 which has a QuadTel Bios in it. On boot up, using a CGA card output to the 5153, I get a 1C 4000 message on the screen and nothing else. It looks like this is a memory error
From this user manual https://theretroweb.com/motherboard/manual/ht101a-286-user-manual-6467d04d34439310676945.pdf (page 12) there is a QuadTel error code reference for memory
The memory is double stacked, also looks like someone has tried to troubleshoot in the past as the chips are mismatched. Not sure which way to go for identifying which memory chip is bad.
Thanks in advance for any help!
EDIT : So funny enough, as I looked closely I noticed one of the chips looks like it was not seated correctly, I pulled it there was a bent pin, put it back in and now it's a 1C 8000 error. So progress. I'm going to work though re-seating the chips and see if that does anything.
