I've had an oddity happen- my beige g3 has stopped seeing whatever card is in pci slot c. I've had three cards- an ATI video card, an asante 10/100 ethernet card, and a orange micro USB/Firewire card installed. Just recently my network started dropping the connection to the g3, so I swapped the ethernet card out with a similiar one from another machine- nothing. So then I tried swapping the cards into different slots and discovered that none of my cards work in slot three. I've tried the cudo switch, I've tried pram reset- 10 times in a row, etc., and nothing works.
The odd thing is that this is a new motherboard-to me anyways. I bought it used because my old motherboard started the exact same behaviour. (Well, then the cat jumped into the open computer case while testing...) So is this not unusual? Seems odd for lightning to strike my motherboard twice... And they did have different cards in them so it should not be a defective card per se. Its a standard beige g3- originally 233mhz, running currently with a 333 zif chip from another beige g3- and NOT overclocked- just set to work with the 333 zif. Running OS 9.2.2 and nothing else fancy in terms of extensions, etc. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED!
