I'll add my 2 cents. Ditch the Sonnet extension, use either the PowerLogix or NuPowr controllers for your G3 card. I have a NewerTech 233mhz G3 card in my 1400 and a Sonnet 400mhz G3 in my 9500. I've tried all 3 different drivers in both machines. All drivers seem to control the G3 processor settings but the NuPowr seems the most stable for the 1400. I've used it with System 7.5, 8.0, 8.1, 8.5, 8.6 and 9.1. It's been flawless with all O.S. versions. I'm using the PowerLogix drivers in the 9500 as it was the easiest to keep the G3 settings while switching between 9 and X.2 on that machine. The drivers are available on the Other World Computing site in their Tech section. They're also the home of the famous XPostFacto OS-X hack/installer. <http://eshop.macsales.com/Tech/index.cfm> John -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
