For whatever reason, all the processor cards you tried must have utilized the same or similar clock speeds. Believe it or not, the processor card tells the motherboard what clock speed to run at. That's why most G3 and G4 ZIF carrier cards have some sort of settings for the user to configure. Terry -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
