I vaguely recall having a 3100 where the leaking
battery attacked a memory
option board and it used to endlessly cycle around test B, which seemed a bit
strange. I would have expected the test to have failed and terminated not
get stuck in a loop.
Did replacing the memory boards help any or was the system itself shot?
As far as I recall (and nobody ever accused me of having a good memory), when
I removed the memory board, the problem went away. I don't think I had a
replacement to hand. I think there is a small amount of memory on the main
board so the tests should be able to run without any memory board plugged in.
