    Supermicro 370SWD recap done, but have memory errors

    I have a '99 vintage Supermicro 370SWD that originally had NRSY 1500uF 10V caps in pretty much every location on the board. I replaced all of them with Nichicon UPW series 1500uF 10V caps. Board still POST's, but i get memory errors in memtest86 or any other memory testing utility, using known good CPU and memory. The NRSY caps did test good on the cap meter at work, although they got replaced anyway.

    Any ideas??


    Thanks...

    When you replaced the nrsy caps did you also end up replacing the caps surrounding the memory slots? I had similar memory problems which were fixed by doing so (I used the same low ESR caps I'd used in an Abit VP6 repair, 1000uF 16V.)

      I replaced every cap, except the one by the keyboard/USB ports, as i didn't have a proper replacement for that one.
