    The -20 variant of the NVRAM chip finally came in.  It was replaced but
    didn't fix the problem. We had to replace the PCI backplace... By the
    way, the new backplace had the NVRAM with a -20 variant as well.

    Did you ever upgrade to AlphaBIOS V5.24 or V5.28 to see if that
    corrected the problem? i.e. before swapping out the PCI backplane
    module? As far as I know, only V5.21 AlphaBIOS exhibited the inability
    to deal properly with the faster NVRAM parts.
