Thanks everyone for the great response. The soldering Len mentioned was enough for me to forget about the option of putting the DA's processor into the Gigabit. And then, today I discovered that original 400MHz processors for the Gigabit can be found on ebay for less than 15$, so I decided to simply get one of those. That is, IF...
yes, IF I can get the Sonnet upgrade to work in the Digital Audio! Because I just put it in and the DA didn’t start up at all. I mean, HDs etc are running, but no picture on the screen. 1. I have closely followed the instructions in a Sonnet document called "encore_st_g4_no_sink_qsg.pdf", so I’m wondering what I have missed? 2. For the time being, I've put the DA's own 466MHz back, but I'm not feeling very easy about the stuff between processor and heat sink, though. The Sonnet document doesn't talk about that at all. Any advice on that? 3. I installed Temperature Monitor to keep an eye on the CPU, but it gives me only the temperature of the harddisk. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day... -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
