1. I have a 68LC040 33MHz CPU in my Performa 630 DOS Compatible, and I would like to replace it with a full 68040 40MHz CPU that I have. From the info I have gathered, this should not cause any problems.... right?
2. Trouble is, I can't get the processors off either board... do you need to use a grotesque amount of force, or what? I have been using flat-bladed screwdrivers, with me and a friend trying to gently lift opposite corners simultaneously (to minimise pin-bending).... but can't get the thing to budge a micron, let alone an inch... We have increased the yanking power up to what we thought was serious force, but nothing moved... any tips? The service manual pdf for the 630 shows the Apple chip-removal tool in action, which has a levering action... is levering against the board the only option? (Don't want to smash anything.) Mike PS Thought I better come clean, the 40MHz chip is off a working Radius Rocket II card... don't crucify me, I know it's sacrilege, but I've never been able to get the thing to do much on my IIci, it's finickity and unstable, so I'd like to give its CPU a whirl on the Performa to see how big the speed boost is... if it's insignificant, I promise to return it to its rightful abode... -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
