Toddd,
Thanks I had a painful 3 hours testing
card by card and slot by slot, had isolated about 4 slots, just when I thought
we had it figured out after running for almost an hour it restarted. This was
after a successfully upgrade of the firmware on the Hiper Access Card because
we had managed to finally connect into it using TCM (Total Control Manager).
What kind of further information would you require?

Card keeps re
A variety of things could be going wrong seeing that there
are several "pieces" to a total control chassis. You say you've
already tried removing dsp's one by one to see if that stops the reboots. In
the past I've also had experience with a NMC card causing the reboots or even a
bad slot on the chassis. Basically you're rolling the dice and having to
pay close attention to figure out if it's another card or slot causing your
headaches.
As far as the console not working.....
Are you plugged into the console port? (the top port on the
nic)
Are you using the standard total control cable or something
you made? (have you been able to get console with this cable before?)
Are you baud settings correct? On the front portion of
the arc (the nac) are any of the dip switches on?
Do you get garbage on your screen when trying to console or
do you see nothing at all? Any additional information you can provide would
help. Can you telnet into the arc?
