I have the Apollo 40MHz card installed and 2MB chip ram is reported as well as the 32MB other ram. I did a ton of reading about the 68040.library (mind boggling). Right now the 68040.library installed is from the OS3.1 install - along with the installed SetPatch. Everything seems to work, I do get intermittent guru and system lockup, not sure if I am achieving full speed (suggestions on a system performance program?). My question is, would there be any advantage to only replacing the SetPatch to a newer version to get better stability & performance? How is SetPatch configured?

Go onto Aminet and dig up Oxypatcher - instant speedup.
Also make sure that the fan on the 040 is working as they do get rather toasty.

I'll give it a whirl! THX!!!!!

The only thing about Oxy in Aminet you can find is a review...

Hi,
My A1200+Apollo 1240 is packed away at the moment but I seem to remember that the 68040.library, for a real 68040 was less than 1K.
A quick search on Aminet for 68040 finds
The manual for the Apollo 1240 is available here:

Only if you were using a 68060 accelerator - which required the use of a brand new lib to cover the fact that the 68060 wasn't fully compatible with earlier models.
The standard 040 library as shipped with 3.1 was just fine unless you plugged in one of those cards.
Or you could have been using MUlibs (which were awesome).
