I recently installed a Powerforce G3/400 on my PB180. The card came with a nice instruction sheet which advised to remove the backside cache that was installed in the machine. It then gave a rather complex ( sorry, I'm not a prophead) set of directions on adjusting the dip switches on the card to squeeze more speed out of it. Until I got the combination right, the PB behaved in exactly the way Spencer's did. Now, it flogs my other computer into the ground (a flash-looking iMac 266), and doesn't crash at all. But be warned from my experiences trying to run Jaguar on the iMac: 266mHz is way too slow to do more than keep pace with word processing.Most OSX games won't run. So perhaps 233mHz isn.t enough to give full value to OS9...... On Saturday, Nov 9, 2002, at 02:03 Australia/Melbourne, Chuck Stinnett wrote:
