I took the Sonnet ST/G4 1GHz from the Gigabit I just bought and put it instead of my DA's 466MHz processor. Result: the DA doesn’t start up at all. I mean, HDs etc are running, but no picture on the screen.
1. I have closely followed the instructions in a Sonnet document called "encore_st_g4_no_sink_qsg.pdf", so I’m wondering what I have missed? 2. For the time being, I've put the DA's own 466MHz back, but I'm not feeling very easy about the stuff between processor and heat sink, though. I think it's called contact paste. The Sonnet document doesn't talk about that at all. Any advice on that? 3. I installed Temperature Monitor to keep an eye on the CPU, but it gives me only the temperature of the harddisk. To be sure: the Sonnet works normally in the Gigabit; I tested it before the "transplant" and after. -- 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.
