hi,
can anyone please help me? my powermac dual 450 MHZ G4 was working fine with no signs of any problems. then i decided to open it up so that i can install a digi 001 pci card. i installed the card a few minutes ago and now the computer won't start? am i missing something here? what could have i done wrong? i followed the directions that came with digi 001 correctly...and now it won't power up? anyone have any ideas? thanks

If the power cord is connected to the computer and the wall, I would try would be removing the card.

Try installing the card i different pci-slots to see what happens when you power up.
If that dont work - remove the card and power up - does it work? (the computer).

If computer start fine without card:

1)
Either you committed an error while installing the card - double-check instructions.

2)
Your computer or OS does NOT support the card.
IS the card meant for PCI-slots or PCI-X slots or maybe even PCIe (PCI Express slots)
Check with DigiDesign.

3)
The card is broken - check it out in another comparable MAC

IF 2) have the card replaced with a correct type of card --
or 3) Have the card replaced with a functional card. ( check repairs or warranties )
