Problem with LX Pro server with 4 x 200/1mb CPUs

[Andrew P. Bielecki]

Hi
Recently one of my LX pro with 4 x 200/1mb CPUs develop strange problem. The server will not post with 4 CPUs. After inserting 2 second CPU board and powering it on the server will not display any thing on the front panel. Removing the board and running it with only 2 CPUs or putting boards with Pro 200/512mb CPUs and system will post without errors. I only have 2 CPU boards with 200/1mb cache processor but only of them will run
in the system at the time and system will not run with both of them at the same time.
The system developed this problem after running it for couple months and power was recycled during the POST. After this server with 4 CPUS in it will not POST.
I re-flashed the BIOS and cleared CMOS and nothing. Server will not run with 4 1mb cache CPUs. Am I missing some trick to make it work again?

Anthony,

Is it possible that the motherboard is developing a problem? Perhaps one of the CPU board slots is acting up?
If you have another LX Pro server you can use for testing, I'd try putting both of the 200/1mb boards into it and see what happens.
Or if you can put a set of 512Kb boards into the server in question and test that.
