SDI Image in Ram

[Dietmar]

Hi all,
I have a question.
I boot a 370MB XPe to RAM from an USB harddrive.
The image boots in 30 seconds, and all works fine.
But sometimes, after 10 minutes or 2 hours,
I get a black screen and nothing more can be done.
It is not a problem of memory or something else, because
prim95 and everything other works for Years on the same
computer without any screens of death.
I think there is a bug in the SDI image.

Thank You
Dietmar

Hi Dietmar,

It will be tough to find this bug. But look at your display settings and power management when system is idle.
Also you might need remote debugger connected :to find where your system got stuck.

Regards,

Hi all,
I solved this problem.
The ATI 9700 ALL IN WONDER grafikcard seems to need more current in XPe
than in XPPro.
This is very strange, but true.
When I changed the extra powerconnector on the grafikcard, all works fine
and there are no more black screens of death in XPe. (Never in XPPro)
