Hi
Here's an update to the question I asked the other day, my original question had incorrect information. The riser card I referred to below stays with the Powercurve. My new question is with system 9.1 on a Umax J700 which software do I download from the site below?

I downloaded some of it, but there is so much there I must not have the correct software as the G3 card will not work. When the card is in, the system starts up I get the happy mac and then it just sits there in that mode without loading any extensions at the bottom, acts frozen. I also tried zapping the PRAM so is there any other reason the card would not work, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I was really wondering what you were talking about with the riser card;-) So thanks for clearing that up.
First off I believe any G3 card( made for the J700) will run in the J700 machine without any cache software. It will run much slower but will still boot and run. However the wrong software could keep it from booting. So I'd remove the cache software and try that. So the card ran fine in the Powercurve machine? Do you know what software was used with it? You really haven't given us enough or any info on the card other then to say G3 Newertech. They made a number of cards which each may use different software. There are even some G3 cards which only work in some machines and don't work in others not sure about the Powercurve . If cards for it work in other machines or not. Powerlogix software will likely run with the card. First off try with no software for the card and does the card have any info or hints at model etc? If you have a name or model number I could look it up. best of luck Will S
