-- Yes, I meant E100. And I couldn't get the S900 to start up at the time no matter what I did when the E100 was in place in any slot. I zapped the PRAM early by restarting and instantly pressing the keys as well as waiting for the bong and in mid bong. I pulled any other cards that I had, as well as all the ram, everything except one of the ims tt128's. The E100 was just no good. I couldn't reverse the firmware upgrade because the card was simply not available. Maybe surgery is the answer. Interested in erasing the chip? I can talk to you off list about if you like. I'm never be good with solder. If I had worked with it earlier on I know that I would have become skilled. dan_A -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
