I have 11 years Mac experience, but I cannot seem to find the conflicts that cause major frustration on this one machine. I use the installed Apple Express Modem (v3.1). I have upgraded the hard drive to a 3.2 IBM IDE, and it is partitioned into two HFS+ volumes using Apple Drive Setup 1.6.1. I have 88 MB RAM with RAM Doubler (v8.0) to 176 MB. I use the 6360, Mac OS 8.1, Norton Disk Doctor 4.01, Eudora 3.13 and MS IE 4.01 with FreePPP 2.62, MS Office 98 with its upgrades, Quicken 98, FileMaker Pro 3, etc. Many of these freezes occur while online with Eudora or MS IE. Can you point me to an email source for help resolving 6360 freezes that occur with mouse actions during processor cycling or during opening of apps, files, or Web pages? I have gotten so I try to keep my hands off the mouse during processor cycling, though this is hard. I have some other 6360 questions I need to ask. So, though Vimage does not advertise the G3 for the 6360, would it be compatible for my L2 cache slot? Its architecture appears similar, and all the Apple Software Updates, such as the L2 cache problems and fixes were applicable to both. My impression is that my Performa 6360 is really a pre- 6400. SS writes: I read What about a Vimage G3 for My 6400 or 6500? Perhaps you can answer an intriguing question I have. You can add either an L2 cache or a G3 upgrade in the cache slot. The 64 are directly related to the 6360 design. Mac Daniel writes: The 6360 incorporated a new motherboard architecture, which separates it from the earlier x200 models ( 6200, 6300, 6320). I’ve done a lot of reading, but most info is related to the 6400s I don’t know where to start. Is this a 6320 with a better chip or a limited 6400 (all diagnostic programs report this as a 6400)? Can I add a Level 2 cache, or should I try for something in the PCI slot that also adds a cache? MM writes: I’m confused about the possibilities for my Performa 6360 (32 MB RAM, Mac OS 8.1, internal modem removed). It uses the same improved system board architecture that later made their way into the 64. 1999 – No, the Performa 6360 (also sold as the Power Mac 6300/160) isn’t part of the dreaded x200 family.
