Well, it looks like the problem, if you have an SE/30 and not an SE, is that you need to upgrade the newer Macs (SE/30s & MacII*) four SIMMs at a time. The older Pluses ans SEs use 16 bit data path; that's 8 bits X 2 SIMMs. The new 68020 and 68030 machines us 32 bit path; that's 8 bits X 4 SIMMs. Hope this helps. ============================================================================= |Matt Mashyna | "That is the most obscene abomination of a song... | |mm5l@andrew.cmu.edu | that is dirt, that is filth, that is trash.
