The QuadDoubler WILL NOT WORK in a Quadra 800. The QuadDoubler doubles
the bus speed of the computer it is installed in. That would run it at 66MHz
in the Quadra 800. That just wont happen. The only way to get it to work is
to decrease the bus speed or seriously cool it (66MHz could probably use some
water cooling). Decreasing the bus speed would decrease performance. The
board they are sending you is most likely a Centris 650, which runs at 25MHz
but is very similar to a Quadra 800 board.
Bottom line, return it and never try to get it to work, unless you want
to spend a couple hundred on a water cooling system. Check out this link if
thats the way you want to go...
