Yeah, the Presto software download from Sonnet's site has 2 enablers for OS8 but I had seen a couple of other forum posts in other places where people mention a System 7 enabler, so I mailed Sonnet asking for it and they sent me it! It's also mentioned in the Presto Plus installation pdf that's on their site, so it definitely does exist! :D

But what use it is, I don't know. When the 7 Enabler is in my System folder, nothing happens. Junk it out and just have the Presto extension, it boots. But still doesn't work.

I actually have 2 versions of the Presto extension, v3.1 (1996-1998 Sonnet Technologies) (114Kb) and v3.2.1 (beta 1996-2000 Sonnet Technologies)(152Kb). The 3.2.1 is the one that Sonnet mailed me, 3.1 is the downloaded one from their site. 3.2.1 causes a "bus error" when loading the extension, whereas 3.1 just doesn't load/enable the card.

Can you check which extension you are using? If you mail me yours and it doesn't work then perhaps there is something wrong with the card.
