[H-GEN] Daffy is DEAD - All mourn Daffy :-(

[Brent Wesley]

In the past when I have had 3 long beeps  it has been the system not
able to detect the RAM correctly. eg Bad RAM, RAM not seated, bad mother
board. 

Check that the simms are correctly seated.  Get a pencil eraser and
clean the contacts on the simms with it.  This will get rid off any
buildup on them.  If possible get some different RAM and try that.

If you still have probs.  Let me know I will bring a POST card to test
the system on Saturday.

Cya
Brent.
