Re: Booting a 7600 with an MP Card

I recently had a problem with my Power Macintosh 8500 604e/200MHz dual
processor where  the startup chime would occur but no display. I was
able to startup from a Mac OS 7.6 CD and then reinstalling the OS
allowed the computer to startup.

I would also be interested in purchasing a dual 604e card when you list
them on eBay.

Hi everyone,

I buy lots of used PowerMac processor cards, and it looks like I got 
a couple dual 604 cards from the 9500 series.  I'm trying to boot a 
7600 with them, but having trouble.  I get the startup chime, but no 
monitor signal.

My guess is that there is something that I am missing on my Mac OS 
System (it's 8.5.1) that's preventing it from booting.

I know the 7600 works because I regularly boot it with everything 
from 120Mhz - 250Mhz 604e cards, and the occassional G3 and G4 
upgrade cards from Newer and Sonnet.

Any ideas on how I can get these cards to properly boot?  I tried 
searching the web & Apple's website, but no luck.  I don't have an 
original Mac OS 8.5 Boot CD, so I'm not sure if there is something 
wrong with my install or not.

Thanks in advance for any help!
Adam
