MY C500 set up is as follows:
Sonnet Crescendo L2 G3/400 processor upgrade
IBM Deskstar 20.5GB IDE drive
Ouantum Fireball 3GB SCSI drive
144 MB RAM
Apple CD-ROM (replaced original)
Sonnet Tango combo USB/Firewire PCI card
Asante Ethernet PCI Card
La Cie CD-RW U&I
Iomega Zip Drive
This is very similar to yours. The problem is NOT Sonnet's per se as
I read that 6400s that had other G3 upgrade cards were experiencing
similar problems; however just about all could be eliminated by
deactivating either the processor upgrade extension or the USB
extensions. Like you, there were others who weren't having the
problem. Do you have any sound sets active in the Appearance Control
panel? I wonder if that might be a factor. I'll have to play around
with it.
