We have recently upgraded a PB 270C using the Mac upgrade motherboard to get
it up to a 2300 Power Mac.
Initially it worked but after a few minutes it " goes to sleep". No end of
changing and checking bits seems to cure this. We have tried:

freezes. If its turned off and rebooted after about 5 minutes it will

from the CD.
Anyone got any ideas before we bin the machine and Docks?

of the G3 upgrade the 1400 should run 8.6 without any issues. Unless you

I recently got a Duo 2300, which seems to be working fine (chimes on

the LCD?
