Hi:
Ignore the earlier email. The 6116CD has a MAXpowr MXP6100 Upgrade card in it. I thought it was the Sonnet! I stuck it in there months ago and didn't test it. I put that in a 7100/80 instead. Anyway it won't start past the NewerTech G3 PDS extension from the OWC site. With extensions off it starts up fine with the card in or out, with the AV card attached or not.Any ideas people??? Do I need a different Installer with the MXP6100? Should I reinstall the OS and then the Newertech G3 PDS installer? Maybe it's confused because I originally had the Sonnet Extnsion in there.
It's worth trying a reinstall of the OS software, but my experience is that when the NT PDS G3 upgrade works okay without the extension and freezes the system with it, then the cache chips on the upgrade are hosed. Your Mileage May Vary.
