awww. crap! I just got to dinking around with the system, and found out the issue with video and stuff. EVERYTHING works in my PowerMac 7500 (Ram, CPU/Video/USB/whatever), but the PowerMac 9500 won't boot to video. I used to hear the chime, and now it just death chimes (glass breaking) right on boot. I have tried multiple ram chips, interleave, non-inteleaved, only one chip, multiple chips. I have gone through all the troubleshooting issues, and came down to it that the board is dead. I am not sure whether I want to hunt for a new board, or go buy a PowerMac 9600 and throw out the old case. I am not too fond of the case the 9500 came with. but I LOVE the pci slots
