you need System Enabler 003 version 1.1 BEFORE you overclock it. System 7.1 will not boot without it afterwards.

Oh really? So does that mean this method ends up changing the Gestalt ID? What shows up in About This Macintosh? LC III or LC III+?

I did not check the ID but it definitely changed something. It said "Macintosh LCIII" before, and "Macintosh" with no picture.

I am running 7.1 for no particular reason... my LCIII's only mission is to run my Apple IIe card, it's a pretty lightweight operating system for that machine which is nice because I don't need the features that 7.5 would give me. The 160mb hard drive is a bit of a limit too.
