OKAY,
I am the man who started this thread and I have done a bit more
research. I removed the G3 daughter card again, and, NO, there is absolutely no
logo identifying the manufacturer of the card. For what it is worth, the heat
sink is black and rather small; less than half the size of the stock 210 mhz
604e in my PowerCenter Pro.
I did discover two small knobs on the back of the card. Presumably one sets the
bus speed and the other sets the processor speed. Both knobs are identical, and
each can be set from 0 to 9, or A to F. Each one was set to 9.
Since I had the card out of the machine, I figured I might as well pop it into
my other PowerComputing unit -- the PowerCenter Pro 210. I did not change the
settings (both remained at 9) and, well, the computer refused to turn on. NOTE:
the computer did accidentally turn on, with no cpu installed -- kind of
interesting. Then I adjusted both knobs to 7, which got the computer to turn on
but it would not boot. By the way, yes, I did press the "reset" button on the
motherboard after installation.
I will keep goofing around with the knobs to see if I can get it to work in the
PowerCenter Pro 210. After all its bus goo for up to 60 mhz but the PowerCenter
150 is limited to 50 mhz.
Anybody got any hints?
Richard
