Hello DJ, I have had continious problem installing with ATA 133 HD, Sonnet CrescendoG4800 and S900. What I realised with TwinTurbo you need propably whole TwinTurbo software installed and it works better. Anyhow I have get farer with Radeon 7000. It boots from X cd but always crashed by some �unexpected error ... exit code 0�?
Norton Disc Doctor finds always some major problems after these tries. Helps a little if there is much memory about 800-900 MB. B slots should be full to work best. Formatting HD with Intechs HDSpeedTools helps also possible. XPostFacto works better also with my setup. Sonnet even promised to pay moneys back from PCIX installer in some cases. That 2GB HD is little tight for X. I have seen that ATA card on slot A1 and video card on slot B1 works best. Sonnets advice is to install X in iMac and take the HD back in S900 and drive XTuneup. That's something what I have to try also. Write if you succes. Hope this help, Olli Darwin M Sison wrote: > Hello to all with a Umax S900.
