I installed 8 of what were supposed to be 1Mx4-80SC zips in my
A3000 yet when WB comes up it only shows 1MB - (kickram + buffers).

Since I was replacing 256Kbx4 zips (I moved the dips & put in some zips a few
months ago) I'm sure I put the new ones in the correct slots etc etc.

Stupidity mode on (:-{
Since the tube and the packing list said 1Mx4-80 SC I didn't write down the
chip part numbers except to notice they were NECs.

The box is closed up at home so I can't give the part no.s now either...
Stupidity Node Off (hopefully).

Anyway, is it *possible* for either a (1) chip to be bad or even to be seated
incorrectly and the system come up at all? (I *thought* 8 1MBx4 chips made
up just one bank meaning "all on or all off").

I'd like a response today (if possible)...

Thanks in advance
