Though not necessarily Sonnets fault. How do you tell if it's the fault of the card or the RAM? You choose to blame Sonnet because the rearrangement of your RAM appeared to make everything O.K. A replacement card from Sonnet could have solved your problem and left your RAM interleaved. When I had a RAM/G3 problem, I sent the card back to Sonnet and continued to use interleaved ram on the replacement card; eventually increasing to 544MB interleaved. If you're still within your three year warranty, you could return your card. RAM usually comes with a lifetime warranty. OTOH, I don't think I'd choose Sonnet next time around, for other reasons. _ Andrew -- -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
