Did you try to drop the speed to 400? I have a G4/350 that I was able to run at 400 with no problems, but I have seen some of the upgrade chips that are rate higher than the chip really is, so I would suggest seeing if it is actually a 450 or if it's a 400. Also, it's possible that it does just have a bad chip. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
