CPU Director allows you to view and configure the cache and processor clock speed settings on your PowerLogix upgrade card. The included utilities allow you to enable or disable the cache "on the fly", change the speed at which your backside cache operates and automatically enable the cache at this speed at boot time.

If your upgrade uses an IBM 750FX processor, you can also change the processor clock speed "on the fly" as well as the speed at which to set the processor when rebooting. There are also options to disable speculative access (a problem with OldWorld machines that originally did not ship with a G3 or G4 processor) and enable dynamic power management. Finally, if your upgrade uses multiple-processors, and you are running Mac OS X, you can view and change these settings on a per-processor basis.

Version 2.3b6 is released, bringing support for Mac OS X 10.4.9

Mac OS X 10.3 or later.

	Jun 3 2007	MACIMMORTAL I installed this update flawlessly on a Blue and White G3 350 mhz upgrade with a Powerlogix 900 mhz zif. After installing this update, I bumped the processor speed to 850 mhz and the computer has been running without any issues whatsoever. I've been waiting for this upgrade and I'm pleased to get it finally. (Version 2.3b6)

PWRMACTX PLEASE READ !!!!! ****** DON'T Believe the Hype -Below - to a point ****** Was able "to successfully" install "update" the word is install... In safe mode managed to install then never loaded during verbose mode throttle issue. Then with FORCE restart severely corrupted by hard drive to the point where disk first aid in both Install DVD and classic could not fix this is Severe!!!! I had to resort to rebuilding the desktop remember that option??? In classic? After doing that I was able to revert AGAIN Back to 10.4.7 the ONLY stable OS for upgrade cards...

In my Opinion this is MacSales and Powerlogix FEBEL attempt for a fix for an OS that apparently is figuring out how to disable these card from working...

Next year I am buying a new Mac and selling my Card on eBay and NEVER refer anyone to MacSales / OWC again.

They have your money but no support...

****** DO NOT INSTALL This Update: OS Freezes during PKEXT install and never does install **** Waste of a Saturday morning re-installing OS 10.4.7 (Only stable version- For Powerlogix Processor Card...

4 months waiting for a update that is even worse than 2.3b5 because with 2.3b5 at least you get an error message instead of your OS Freezing.

If this is sign of how PowerLogix and MacSales supports their products, would think twice about supporting them.... (Version 2.3b6)

	May 14 2007	REL1 Had a similar problem installing the new CPU director, was about to re-load the OS (10.4.9), then decided to repair the permissions on my HD, and that have fixed the install problem for me, installed with no issues and is running very good at a PLL setting of 1.1Ghz.
