David: You are giving up on your 4000 too easily! Although the 4000 does have it's quirks, most of the time it will run just fine with very few guru visits. I would say your SCSI controller is the most likely culprit, and you might check into purchasing a GVP 4008 or the DKB 4091 if you can afford it. The GVP controller will work fine with either the -09 or -11 SuperBuster and gets a decent transfer rate of 750K-1MB/sec transfer rates. The 4091 requires the -11 Buster and 3.1 (or above) processor board. Some programs don't like the Copyback cache of the 68040, but unless it's a game, I usually trash such programs. Same goes for a lot of programs that cause Enforcer hits. // John (Speeding on the Information Superhighway) \X/ Mercury@ins.infonet.net
