Nancy- Since you've been using a fairly fast G3 upgrade and have had no problems you may be OK. I would go ahead and try the install with the ram you have. If it works- no worries, if it doesn't start pulling the older and smaller chips (as indicated by ASP) first.
My old 32 M chips are fine- from a 1996 J700. I'm now up to OS 10.1.4. -Ford On Thursday, April 18, 2002, at 07:43 AM, Nancy L Haitz wrote: > Hi all, > > I have been lurking around in the background on this list for a couple > of weeks.
