darwinboy Registered: 08/11/04 Posts: 1	Dear Forum: I have a Performa 6360 which I'm bringing out of mothballs. I have a 2 slot PCI riser card which I would like to install into this Mac. The card, as I have discovered, will not fit unless I make some modifications to its innards. Is there anyone here that has done a mod on this machine? Does anyone know where I can find the service manual for this machine? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Roland

Do you plan on submitting for the competition? _________________________ "Fix it 'til it Breaks."

Roland If it's a 2 slot riser out of a 64/6500 it should work but you'll have to do some serious cutting of the case to fit it in there. I've seen Color Classics with the 2 PCI slot riser but it was hacked up pretty good to make it slide in. Krow

Heck, throw a little external air intake unit on top while your at it. _________________________ MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo w/ 2GB DDR2 RAM & 120GB SATA 5400RPM HDD Canon Rebel XTI Google Cr-48 Beta Laptop
