I've got 72 pin here with four slots available with one
of those being offset on the board from the other three.
One of the memory sticks is marked  Alliance
AS4C14005-60JC
9719 B4482-B
Here's an odd bit the second of four sticks is marked   
9729 B6N70-B
First sequence of numbers is the same on both sticks.
The 2 - 8 meggers in the first two slots check out OK
while one of the 2 sticks I've got removed is defective.
Are these suitable for the 4 MHz refresh rate I'm seeing
on Ebay. I'll stick these numbers into a search engine too
to see what I can find out.
Removing the pair in the first two slots and subbing pair 3 and 4
eliminated the memory error with attendant beep code of
1-3-4-1 which didn't even wake up the monitor.
