Yep, even though my old processor ran at 315MHz and the new one is at 300MHz, the jump in bus speed makes my old PowerLogix look like my S900 was powered by a gerbil on a wheel. I can now run iTunes visualizer in full screen mode with the 'faster but rougher' option off and it won't skip a beat. I used to not be able to use it at all. I can now also listen to MP3s while doing some other task and it doesn't make my whole machine choke.
As for the settings, I didn't know how fast your processor would go. You could use a switch setting of 2,3,4,5,9,11,12 on. That would give you the 52MHz bus and put your chip at 364MHz. Hopefully your chip can go the extra 4MHz. It probably will but you never know what the breaking point is. -Robyn On Tuesday, September 24, 2002, at 03:53 AM, Howie S wrote: > I think I tried that, but I'll give it another shot.
