5968.0. "AS4000 5/400 Crashes with Digiboard PC/Xem ISA" by DEKITG::JUNGYOUNGNAM (Angelo Nam - hidden village!) Tue Apr 29 1997 21:55

    I have a customer with an AlphaServer 4000 5/400 where I'm trying to
    install a Digiboard PC/XEM ISA for RAS setup.
    If NT 4.0 machine reboots after running the ECU then the NT 4.0 crashes.
    I can see the login prompt about 5 seconds (Ctrl+Alt+Del) with Microsoft
    NT Server 4.0 banner. Sorry I forgot the exact crash data at this time.
    If I remove the PC/XEM config at ECU then the machine starts without error.
    I've tried all the possible combinations of IO port address and memory
    map. The 4000 is running ArcBIOS 5.28. NT 4.0 is holding Service Pack 1 
    only. I've already tried with the latest HAL but the result was same.
    
    Any one got any ideas on what to try next? Can the Service Update Pack 2
    resolve the crash problem?
    Any comment greatly appreciated.
    
    Thanks,
    Angelo
