Can't extract Daystar Powercache Driver

Can't extract Daystar Powercache Driver Software 3 posts Jul 22, 2012 — Jul 27, 2012
I'm trying to get the Daystar PowerCache driver off of http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/accel.shtml

The problem is when I use Stuffit Expander 5.5 it extracts one file in a .cpt format and gives a message saying I need the Deluxe version to completely expand it.

Can someone on here who has the extracted Control Panel for this message me?

A program called "CompactPro" will extract .cpt files for you.

Note that the installer for CompactPro will not run in classic mode. You will need to run this on a computer booted form Mac OS 9 or older, or run it within Basilisk II or SheepShaver.

Actually I just tried it and StuffIt Expander 11.0.1 was able to expand it completely all the way to the control panel. I'm not going to redistribute software here, but do try this version of StuffIt Expander and/or CompactPro. Worst case, send me a PM with your e-mail address if you absolutely can't expand it and I'll recompress the control panel for you into just a .SIT file or something.

Yay! That worked. Thank you.

One thing I noticed is if I turn on the math option I get a System bomb as soon as I do anything. I'll have to take a look at the accelerator to see if it has the coprocessor. You'd think if it didn't that the option would be greyed out.
