My 8600/200 604e with 256k cache, which has an Adaptec scsi pci card and 9 GB 68-pin drive, gives a repeated "bus error" message on cold startup in 8.6. Essentially, it gets to the welcome screen and then crashes with the bus error message (freezing at that point, as the Restart button on the message doesn't work at that point). The Adaptec Control Panel is installed, as is Silverlining.
If I restart often enough, it runs perfectly and stably ("warmed up"?). If I start from cold with Extensions off, it also starts up fine.
What is the likely explanation?
