Hello to all and thanks again to Richard. At this time, I just swapped out my ixTwinTurbo card with a ATI Rage 128 pci card that I got from eBay a few days ago and since it's already native in X. I recently won an Apple 12x scsi cd-rom from eBay of which I am waiting on to replace my Apple 600i. How is the 24x Apple drive working for your system, and which ata controller did you connect it too? I just have the Acard 66 which I see has very limited support for atapi devices.
At this time, I have to find a copy of Tech Tool to test the ram. As far as de-interleaving them, would that make installing X better? Right now, the only retail disk of X that I have is 10.1.2 which I update to 10.1.5 from my hardrive. After the "panic attacks" of trying to reinstall X, I'd simply command+contol+triangle to restart, push the open/close buttom of the cd-rom to get the cd out, put 9.1 cd in, and restart again holding the command+option+shift+delete keys. From there, I just go to the Start Up control panel to the 9.1 system folder on my hardrive and voila! 9.1 is back. I am wondering about my scsi chain with this particular situation. I think maybe minimizing the amount of scsi devices I have from the chain (cdburner, zip drive, and flopppy) may increase my chances of getting a successful install of X in addition to removing the unneccessary pci cards. I am glad to see that 10.2.8 is running on your machine. My friend's beige G3 desktop is having problems with the update. Eventually, I'll upgrade to 10.2. I've been fine when I was using 10.1.5. I too was looking into flashing a Radeon card, but I settled on the Rage 128 since I really did not do gaming on my machine as well as finding a pc to use. I will post my results later...
