Yes i am useing a hpv card >> Try without the HPV card, if possible. The 300 MHz and faster G3 cards needed some rework in the form of a cut trace, two added wires from the LSI labeled U4 (it's located under the upper left corner of the heatsink) to the pass-through connector, and several added capacitors in order to properly support passthrough. Since the HPV passthrough won't work on the 9150 anyway (the slots are in the wrong places), I use a Supermac Thunder/24 to get 24 bit color on my 9150. Try with a NuBus video card, if possible. The two things these 7100/8100/9150 G3 cards are really intolerant of are: 1) cache still installed, and 2) use of HPV passthrough. Otherwise, they work very well. -- 1st-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
