is why Umax provided FWB drivers in the first place. If this really bothers you I'd uninstall 8.6 from the 2.1 drive,
then reinstall it. Therre may have been a "glitch" during the instillation.somewhere between the install of 8.5 and
upgrade to 8.6 something happened. Paul C

Yes, I went from OS 8.1 to 8.6 on the other 2 drives and left the primary alone. The tech used Drive-setup 1.7.3 on those. On the original 2.1 drive I just updated I've got FWB 4.0.1 driver, I did NOT update drivers during installation of 8.6.
I didn't mean the chime worked on the secondary drive, I meant that when I'm using my secondary drive and I choose my original 2.1 as the startup drive and restart, the original 2.1 chimes. It only doesn't chime when I do a cold start when the computer is off.
Even with no chime it still boots.
The sound controls are all on, on all drives.
Could it be the driver? Should I use Drive-setup instead of FWB on my
original drive?
Thanks, Barbara

Your post has me confused. When you say you updated your two other drives previously are you saying you went from OS8.1 to OS8.6 on each of them Or you upgraded the FWB HD Driver? If you have 8.6 installed on each drive it is possible the Startup Sound was not selected or installed in your last install on the original 2.1HD. Each drive with an OS loaded on it has its own Sound Control Panel as part of the OS, so your observation about the sound control panel being OK because it works on the other drive isn't necessarily valid. Not having sounds selected is a choice and will not harm the machine. Paul C

Hi everyone, I have a J700 w/G3 400 zif upgrade & initio miles SCSI.
I still need help with this. My previous message was:
"I just updated my original 2.1 HD (FWB 4.0.1 driver) to OS 8.6, (I had left it at 8.1 and updated my other two drives previously).
Now I have no chime when starting cold. If I restart from one of the other drives the chime sounds normal. Is this dangerous? Why no Chime? What to do?"
The sound control panel is OK otherwise when I restart from my secondary drive I would not have a normal chime.
If no one knows about this problem, does anyone know someone in the Houston area who works on upgrading SuperMacs?
Thanks Again, Barbara
