[comp.sys.zenith.z100] Z150 Memory Board Problems

This is a re-post.  Sorry for the previous posting.


I hope I have posted this question to the correct news group.  I have a Zenith
Z150 pc which I purchase several years ago.  I bought a "generic" memory 
board which I am now having difficulties with.  I am getting errors upon
booting the system and the Zenith displays various (random) memory locations as
being bad.  I had no luck in swapping chips, but finally got some results 
by just reseating the board.  However, the problem comes back and I am 
constantly reseating the board.  Changing slots does not seem to improve the
problem either.  I am willing to by a new memory board if that will solve the
problem.  Could there be something wrong with the Zenith's slots?  If anyone
can give me some suggestions about how to tell if it is the memory board or
my Zenith I would appreciate it.  Also, if you think it has a bad
memory board, suggestions (brand) for a new one are welcomed.  
Any suggestions can be e-mailed to me directly or posted.  Thank you.
