Ahh, there it was.

The info about Q800 and the DOS card hasn't been updated though. The 6100
card _will_ work in a Q800, I tried it.

This page may be of interest for those wanting to try the 610 DOS 
card in Quadras other than the original 610:



Has some juicy stuff. Including; "How  to upgrade the 486 to a 586 by 
Cyrix or IBM"..

Have fun.

Hi

I once ran a PDS dos card in my Q650, and it worked just fine.

The one problem was the cables. I have to use string to support the cable
from inside the machine, and feed it through an empty nubus slot.

Can't find copy of site where I got info how to do it again though.

I did remember though that best perfomerance was to add a simm on the card
and not to use the motherboards memory. I ran Ami Pro on Win 3.1 quite
happily. I also upgraded the heatsink (on the 486) to something better.

Dug around my 1000 bookmarks, but can't find it either. Maybe you can find
something in the DOS card faq here:

The 660AV PDS is different from the 610 PDS.  However, there are probably angle
adapters for the 660AV PDS that turn it into a normal 040 PDS slot.

I don't recall right offhand if it's the same one that fits in the 660A/Vs, 
but I pulled one (spare) out of its angle bracket, and removed the endplate 
- it fit a Q700's PDS slot, though it (just barely) doesn't fit the Q700's 
case. I recall a site saying someone had put them in, but he had to butcher 
the inside "framing" of the case top (er, side) to get it to fit.

The other versions of that card incorporate the very same card, but add an 
extender for the (single) connector, which extender also provides some 
mechanical support for the card.

As the connectors are readily available, you could make your own functional 
extender, using a blank NuBus slot cover. The card wouldn't be as well 
supported, but it would function as well.

The connections are one-to-one.

Only if it's LC PDS, which the 040 PDS most certainly isn't.

I once saw a WWW page that had info about using one in a 650; try googling for
it.  Sorry I can't be of more help than that, but I know it definitely works.
The biggest problem is cabling, because the 610s are the only ones where the
card actually sits against the back panel.  Running cables into the case for
the others (as the 040 PDS isn't always accessible from the outside) can be
problematic.

>else I can put in an '040 PDS slot?

I know of one video card, and the WGS95 had a SCSI card in the PDS, but other
than that I haven't heard of anything.

I'm not certain, but if it's a PDS slot, I think you can put an Apple IIe 
compatibility card in it.

Quadra 610 PDS DOS Card in other '040s?

[Kris Jones]

I bought a DOS Compatibility card with bracket for a Q610 on eBay recently, 
because I needed a Nubus adapter, so I thought I'd get the card for free. 
Unfortunately the card is '040 PDS. I've heard that the card can be used in 
other '040s, which would fix everything since I also just purchased a Quadra 
950 (I've wanted one since they came out!!!).

Does anyone have any experience using one of these cards in something other 
than a Q610?

Also, other than the DOS Compat. card or an accelerator is there anything 
else I can put in an '040 PDS slot?
