> Any thoughts ? Andy,
I'm sure someone has already said this to you, but as a fellow 9500 owner (180/MP) I have actually seen this happen, and it was always one or more of these factors in combination: 1) Badly seated RAM 2) Badly seated PCI card 3) PRAM battery dead 4) CPU card not fully seated 5) Badly terminated SCSI chain RAM is the killer. I had a really bad run where my 9500 would refuse to boot or just plain refuse to turn off. It would spin up the disks, but the monitor would be off and I had to hard/soft reset it multiple times to get it running again. I had to bite the bullet and gut it and put it all back together 3 or more times to get it right. Hope that helps, M -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
