| |
Hello Robert, I tried an grunt experiment . I put Two Ross HyperSparc Dual 66Mhz cpu's in my sparc20 chassis & attempted to install RH-6.1 on the system . After several lock ups , and just plain funky behaviour (ie: key presses mis-interpreted) . I opened the case and removed the cpu's emmediately after power off , they were almost to hot to handle as a rough guess approx. 125 Deg. F. Now in my book this is way to hot for a cpu to be and would definately cause the flaky behaviour I (& maybe you) were seeing . I will later attempt to add some additional fans to the case & see if the added airflow helps .
When I popped these out I dropped back in an old set of Ross 40Mhz Dual cpu's & started the process over , So far nothing ill has happened . Hth, JimL
