This job has it's good times (like now) and it's bad times....I am the only instrument tech on site in the plant right now and probably will be the only one all day unless something really major breaks...And this is no small site or company either (800 million dollar company)...

morning people
bit more RAM added to drone2 overnight, had some memory problems with one of the sticks, solved and back up and running processed 3 units overnight which i was surprised at, each taking just over 3 hours which seems much better, think i'll add some more slots tho - 10 just isn't enough at these speeds |

Never a late one for me unless I want it to be...My relief comes in at 4 and since we already work 12 hour days the company does not force you to stay even if there is a major problem....On a second note, more ram is always a good thing...I run at least a gig in all my machines...

thanks, at least that may narrow things down, will try another RAM swop out (seems to be all i'm doing at the moment) if that don't work its no problem the motherboard is from the mid-1990's so its well past its dead-by date
Cheers |

lilsmap just wants to keep JC company a coupla days......beep errors, they depend somewhat on the board.
----------------------------------------Hi guys Oh...and don't add too many slots cos you never know when you may get a bunch of big units. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Jul 30, 2005 11:39:08 AM] |
