Hi all.
Concerning IIsi Daystar adapters.
You must remove the math coprocessor or it won't work in a SE/30.
I think this is because the IIsi has no math coprocessor so the adaptor is no designed 
to look for one. So when you put it in a SE/30 the math coprocessors conflict.
You can put an accelerator card with a math coprocessors in the adaptor and it will 
work.
This is because the accelerator card is designed to disable a slower math coprocessors.

I have had problems running accelerator with 040s at 33mhz and the cash cards on them.
One reason is the power supply in the SE/30 is wimping out. I modified an ATX power 
supply to fit an SE/30 and a 040 at 33mhz and the cash cards on it worked!
Also there could be a difference in the logic boards.

Last night I was this setup: SE/30 logic board, 140W power supply, Daystar IIsi 
adapter, and a Daystar turbo 601 accelerator.
The turbo 601 accelerator did nothing with this setup. :-(
So I put a IIsi rom simm in the SE/30, and I got the 601 startup sound. :-)
But that's it. It didn't continue to boot.
Tonight I will disconnect the HDD and see what it does.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you.
