PM 8600 and 9600: No CPU upgrades working — #7
Turns out that I have a 333mhz processor, not a 400mhz processor installed.
I tried installing a 400mhz processor I pulled from a B&W G3 and it didn't work at all. (I …

Daystar NuBus RAM Expansion Board? — #3
Triangle Computing used to have one as well. Missed that one on Ebay years ago too, but I do have their Scsi accelerator card. It had drivers for up to OS 6.0.8 too! That card s…

CPU Director for OS 9 does a better job than XLR8s, and no serial required!
You also need to couple the multiplier with a bus speed the 8600/9600 likes; most don't like to be push…

Okay, so I got the XLR8 to work (and it took a bit of digging as of course, there is a Ben 10 character with the same name...) and now I'm running a G3 at a blazingly fast 400mhz (…
Daystar NuBus RAM Expansion Board? — #2
As far as I know they were all just used for RAM disks.
Didn't the original Daystar cards have some kind of bridge for connecting to other Daystar cards without using the Nubus?

Sonnet upgrade cards usually require no configuration, so apart from cleaning the contacts with an eraser I'd suggest it's faulty.
The XLR8 will need to have the correct CPU multi…

No, I have not downloaded the manual as I didn't know if XLR8 still existed (oh dear, the dreaded google search fault).
All I have to test with that I know work are the two 300mhz…

Have you downloaded the user's manual from xlr8.com and checked to make sure that the jumper/switch settings are reasonable? That is, that they are not set to speeds so fast one w…

Known to whom? He's got the earliest Mac listed in that database, that's all we know.

Actually, if I recall those Macs were taken directly off the production assembly line and not given to the team until the Mac shipped, which was not until late January. Until confi…
