After the upgrade to newer G3/240mhz and the enabling of card bus, 
the ASP lists the Backside L2 cache as 1 MB and I was able to use the 
modem and ethermac card, though these cards can be used even without 
enabling the 2400 card bus. I could use these cards in previous 
603e/180mhz processor with the 2 yellow wires (1 wire is yellow and 
the other is yellow ochre) still intact. The card icon is displayed 
on the desktop.

Suddenly the 2400 refused to accept and eject any of the cards and 
the ASP lists the Backside L2 cache as 0 bytes. I have really no idea 
wether the Backside L2 cache has anything to do with the functioning 
of the card bus in 2400. I have downloaded a Newer Backside L2 cache 
enabler 1.2 and an error message says it does not work on PB2400c. 
There is a gauge, Cache-22 that comes with the NUpowr G3 driver and 
it lists the Backside L2 cache as 1024K while in the ASP is 0 bytes.

Thanks,
Ernie
