1400 G3 Upgrade
Sonnett's own app "Metronome" shows when the Cache is enabled/disabled. It's enabled and presumably OK when Sonnett's extension is running, but I can only get all the way through the boot process about 10% of the time when that damn extension is enabled (I'm running 7.6.1). I'll try CPU director.
Unfortunately, I'm experiencing random freezeups and weird PMU issues (no boot, clicks, etc, though these might just be a dead PRAM battery) since I put in the G3.
Any advice on that?

I've got Sonnet's 466 version in Beater, my maxed out 1400c. IIRC, there was no extension necessary, I'm running 9.1 on the old WiFi Wanderer with no problems except except the weight & a measly 20-30 min battery life when the wind is JUST right. :
Hence, the HP Mini 1030NR with 2-3 hours of battery life! The whole shebang/bag, 2.3 lb, 10.1" LCD, NetBook, 5"x7" spiral notebook w/pen & pencil, MICROSCOPIC Belkin Mouse, Mousepad, my reading glasses-N-case and several letter size pages of to-do lists doesn't even hit 4 lbs on my diet scale!
That's less than the weight of my favorite PowerBook Duo 2300c all on it's ownsome. 8-o
The Night Stalker/WiFi Vagabond is running an XP NetBook! :I

I thought you had access to the War Room as soon as you hit the "Global moderator" status :?:Heh! You betcha! In a previous incarnation I was known as Trash80toG-4 here & on 'fritter.
I was then a mod on several of the forums here.
I wonder if they'll reinstate my access to the war room? :?:

Oh... And why the username change?
)] ]'>The PB1400 is NuBus architecture, despite the lack of (conventional) physical NuBus slots, not PCI. NewerTech's G3 accelerators reveal this in the names of their Extension and Control panel: NUpowr. The latest Crescendo extension from Sonnet will inevitably be for PCI Macs, so I suspect that you will need to hunt down and install an earlier Sonnet Crescendo extension. I cannot tell you its version number because all of my Macs (but a DA and an MDD) are still packed after a recent removal to another house. Nonetheless, good hunting.

(on topic) point taken, equill -- but the Sonnett site said the installer I downloaded would detect and install the appropriate extension for my machine/upgrade.
Either way -- I have a 133mhz 1400c coming in the mail tomorrow with more ram and a good PRAM battery that might just handle the upgrade better. (+ bonus ethernet card!)
