Trevor: Thanks for this post -- my problem is the upgrade card is old and doesn't have dip switches -- it has green knobs. If ANYONE has a manual for the 233 PowerForce upgrade cards or knows what the settings should be, please let me know.
Thanks again, Spencer ============================ PREVIOUS MESSAGE: From: Lesley&Trevor Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 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...... ====================== Spencer Krull Creative Services (310) 277-7327 ====================== -- Power Computing is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... 123Inkjets.com <http://lowendmac.com/ad/123inkjets.html> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Power Computing list info: <http://lowendmac.com/power/list.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:powercomputing@;mail.maclaunch.com> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:powercomputing-off@;mail.maclaunch.com> For digest mode, email: <mailto:powercomputing-digest@;mail.maclaunch.com> Subscription questions: <mailto:listmom@;lemlists.com> List archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/powercomputing%40mail.maclaunch.com/> --------------------------------------------------------------- >The Think Different Store http://www.ThinkDifferentStore.com ---------------------------------------------------------------
