As others have already pointed out you need to reset the CPU speed jumpers on the motherboard of a beige G3 whenever you swap CPUs. For 350 MHz the G3 board settings are xSSxSSSxx (s=jumpered, x=empty). However the beige board only runs at 66MHz so a 350 MHz from a B&W should be able to run at 533 MHz in a beige, jumpers for 533 MHz are xxSSSSSxx. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
