Ohhh dear. Okay, so what is CUDA, what does it look like, and where do I find it? Presuming the phone call I'll have to make to my boyfriend will be enough for him to talk me through opening up my G3 and finding the right cable to pull......
The cuda switch on a beige is down on the motherboard by the processor slot. It looks like a small 3-4 mm square box with a round black dot in the middle of it. With the computer off you can press it with the eraser end of a pencil.
This is a picture of one on a different Mac motherboard <http://www.aticonsult.com/images/StarMax3160_Cuda440.jpg> but the switch is the same.
My CUDA switch is in a different place than that shows and I think we have the same machine and board revision.
Look at the lower left corner of your motherboard just underneath the left side of the bottom-most PCI slot. The word "reset" is upside down just below the tiny button right near the bottom edge of the board.
I think the Open firmware reset suggestion might work for you and won't mess up your system clock.
