I think the card is dead ... although they are pretty hard to break. Watch out for the four position switch ... the 9600 comes in two flavors and the non-Kansas (i.e., /233 and below) machines require a different setting than the Kansas (i.e., /250 and above) machines. The two valid switch settings are UP, UP, UP, UP and UP, DOWN, DOWN, UP. Some of these cards have failed caches. A card with a failed cache will work in a non-Kansas machine because these machines have 512 kb of cache on the mobo. But the NewerTech INIT will report an error nevertheless. A card with a failed cache will not work on a Kansas machine, as this machine expects the backside cache on the processor card to be good. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
