Do not use the latest firmware and drivers with a GRex connected to a rev 0 BlizzardPPC. With regard to the BlizzardPPC rev0 and Grex that is bad advice. This is a case of the newest software being the problem.

The reason you need a rev 2 BlizzardPPC is for the OpenPCI stuff in the latest firmware and the latest drivers. Don't use that because it will never work.

You need the drivers and firmware just before the OpenPCI stuff. I have a GRex here connected to a rev 0 BlizzardPPC and it's working great but not with the OpenPCI firmware and drivers.

That is what I have too. cybppc.library version 1.2

You also need the correct 68040 and 68060 library I think.

I have 46.7 and 46.14 respectively.

If you do get it working you can also not use the latest version of CyberGraphx. So no version 4.3 RC5. You need the last beta. Version 4.2 beta 11 I think it was.

Anyway, my cgxsystem.library is version 42.6 and not 42.7 like it is in version 4.3 RC3 to RC5. Maybe RC2 lowers the version to 42.6.
