Jeff,
I got the mobo in with no problem and put in the 8200 with 4megs
vram/128 megs ram/24x cd/4gig HD and fitted the 200mhz 604e from my Umax
into the processor slot but it won't fire up past the chimes.
Tried an XLR8 G4/400 zif carrier too but no go - changed the
cache,reset with the cuda,changed the dimms and checked everything I can
think of but no smiley face - not even a question mark.
However, I have noted from the Apple spec site that the 8500 has a
higher rated power supply. I'm no electrician but could that be my
problem? Not enough amps to drive it?
