...by the way, I am getting a new motherboard for my B&W (Mine somewhat
got damaged.. when I got it the firewire ports were damaged already -I
am using a sonnet card for it- and tried to replace the little firewire
box for another one with the same result. Alas, I think it´s the
motherboard. But then I lost the secondary IDE controller, after I got
a -severely- corrupted HDD, it never recognized anything attached to it
any longer.
Fact is, once I get the other -hopefully totally functional-
motherboard, we could try your 450 on my old B&W motherboard, to ensure
it does work properly...

Hello Len and thanks for your reply.

Did you change any other settings except for multiplier? Like bus

beige, I have a 350 (slightly overclocked) in one that has given me no

I did not change any other setting but the multiplier. In fact the
original CPU is working now with individual jumpers in the jumper
block, not the white multi-jumper.
I can't be sure about the CPU being good. I got it at ebay and the
seller claims it is OK. In fact he claims it is good up to 500 MHz.
I don't know if this is relevant, but the die size of the 266 CPU is
way larger that the one in the 450. Are there different versions?
There are 2 types of accelerators for beiges. One is just a zif like
you got and had to adjust the jumpers on the motherboard and the
other, like Sonnet, iirc, deals with the bus multiplier on the card
that the processor is on. What you got from the B&W is the same
concept that OWC sells, just a zif where you have to set the jumpers
manually.
That's it. The idea was to add no redundant hardware at all.
Many thanks.
