I've found an archive of a Newer Technology URL detailing a Newer Technology CPU upgrade and RAM compatibility issue:
<http://web.archive.org/web/20000817093856/http://www.newertech.com/support/faq/memoryspec.html> Other sources (including Mac Gurus) state that: "You must install 162244 'dual-dampened' memory, whether you are buying FPM DIMMs or 5v EDO DIMMs for a machine running a NewerTech upgrade card.Make sure that the RAM you buy simply incorporates a 162244 buffer: <http://web.archive.org/web/20010529153748/focus.ti.com/docs/prod/productfolder.jhtml?genericPartNumber=CY74FCT2244T>, which is required for absolute compatibility with NewerTech upgrades. Some NewerTech boards also manifest extreme pickiness over buffered versus unbuffered memory: The only way to see if this is a problem in your machine is to remove each of the memory modules and on the center chip there will be a number either 16244 or 162244. If it is the 16244 remove it." ------------------------------ -Martin Totusek (dBug {aka Seattle Macintosh "Downtown Business Users Group"} member) -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
