I think Peter meand that each bus must be run at an inverse integral or half-integral multiple of the processor speed. The system bus and PCI bus speeds that you give for the 180 MHz processor have a ratio of 5.5:4, or 1.375:1, which is not integral of half-integral. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
