Hardware cannot be setup properly;
installation error:Pulsar2 SRAMTest failed:

Please check hardware for conflicts.

and another one:

Board 0(boardID 0)is not a pulsar2!

i had windows98 SE and win2k installed and before it was working on both sites.

sometimes i have strange messages and pulsar won't sturtup. then i turn comp off and with hand mess pulsars conectors.
so, in my case i think that's some contact problem.
try to remove pulsar2 board and add again in the same slot!

Hallo Guys,
I had the same "sramtest failed" problem.
My solution:
I removed the pulsar2 card from the mainboard and plugged it in again.
After that everything worked fine!

P.S.: Thought my baby is leaving me!

could be a poorly seated board or dirty contacts.(clean with 99% or purer alchohol)
otherwise, the card will have to go in for service.
