Holy Jeez, yer askin' for it. Asking for what, exactly, I don't know, as I've never used a processor from one Mac in another. Like, I've put in processor upgrades that were INTENDED for the system they were going into, but this is different. It sounds risky to me.
Anyway, your 7600 ( http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/7600.shtml ) DOES have the same front side bus speed. But, the 9600 ( http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/9600.shtml ) did use a very different processor... And maybe an incompatible motherboard. But, Sonnet's G3 and G4 processor upgrades do work across both models, so maybe there are more similarities than I think and it's okay... Or maybe Sonnet's self configuring System Folder extension handles this? In which case, there would be no software handling this for you and your situation. Here's Sonnet's page: http://www.sonnettech.com/product/crescendo_pci.html Here's Mac Warehouse Canada's page (where I first noticed that this upgrade runs on both your and the seller's machines): http://www.macwarehouse.ca/product.asp?sku=DRI4054 Good luck. Maybe someone else can help on this? On 7/28/03 3:13 PM, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi all. I have a power mac 7600 with 320 mgs ram.
