Will a Rev. C machine (Rev. 3 motherboard) to which a Rev. A ROM-SIMM has intentionally been fitted work with a Trio? My "Rev. 3A" machine is the most stable Beige G3 I own. It is all UW-SCSI except for IDE Bus 0, Master, being a CD-ROM-R-R/W and IDE Bus 1, Master, being a DVD-ROM-R-R/W. [end of merciless edit] My MT is a Rev C machine with a Rev 3 Mobo. I also have a 233 DT that's Rev A/1. I plucked the ROM from the DT (Rev A/1) and placed it in the corresponding ROM slot on the MT (Rev C/3) and....SYSTEM FREEZE (start up chime, then gray screen forever). I had reset the CUDA, and Zapped PRAM 10x. I did not "unclock" the CPU (originally ?333/jumpered to ?434). In my conclusion, I deemed this a failure and am returning the card for a 133 ATA Sonnet. I lusted for the Trio. Ah, love is a fickle thing.... -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
