Well I think that rev 7 has the ROM tower doesnt it? If thats the case
I seem to remember you need special 3.1 ROMS for that type. This could
be the problem. If it was me building an A3000 all over again (I have
about the best you could do on an A3000 not long ago before selling it
for my Pegasos) I would keep the Rev 9. Its the best the made, and get
yourself a cyberstorm, do the INT_2 mod, a mediator, and a Mirage
tower. That way you can get a good qualiety Ethernet, voodoo 3,
soundblaster, and TV card. You bypass the old CPU with a cyberstorm
and it wont matter any more. You can also put 128MB of RAM on it.
