That's another for my ever-increasing list of things that I had not previously known. QuadControl reports the ROM version of my DayStar Turbo040 card as 4.11i. What is the significance of that, given that the card was jumpered for a full 68040 (instead of either of the remaining 68LC040 and 68EC040 positions, both of which are without FPUs)?

I'm not sure what you mean about the card being jumpered, but there is definitely an LC version and a full version of the ROM for that card. Can you tell me what kind of chip the ROM is stored on, under the little sticker. It's the one in the socket over in the corner. If I have a compatible chip on hand, and can ever find an hour, I'll burn you a copy of the later ROM. Then we can see if the Math scores change. :-)
