My Thinkpad decided not to boot yesterday. I can do a safe boot but not a
regular one. Had a 64MB memory module that has apparently died (TP
diagnostics says it's bad) and I removed it and left the 32MB one in. It
goes through the post and hangs with a flashing cursor. I did get a
"himem.sys missing" error when doing a step by step boot. What do I need to
do to fix this?
