EDO RAM

Is there something different about how the kernel deals with EDO ram?
I can't honestly think of a thing, *BUT*, I just recently bought
myself an ASUS P55T2P4 w/60ns EDO and it won't boot. It hangs at INIT
with a BUNCH of "can't resolve symbol xxxyyyzzz".

In a wave of hope I swapped out the ram for some 70ns FPM and sure
enough, all went well!

I've mucked with the BIOS settings, slowing EVERYTHING down, to no
effect.
I've run MEMTEST 1.1 (and are running it now), but it shows no error.

Unfortunately I don't have another machine that supports EDO, so I
can't test the RAM that way....

But it definately is that RAM.

Does anyone know of anything else I can try before sending the memory
back?

Yours in frustration,

N!
