tot3nkopf, I don't mean to sound offensive :) but what drugs have you been taking lately :?

The last time I checked, you cannot load a CPU3 (or CPU2 for that matter) with PC Installer tool !

What am I missing here?

Which version was used? One of the compatible ones?
If not, it looks like your output.

kn1ghtrider I'm not taking any drugs. :lol: This morning I've done that using "compatible version" (one of the ones described by Eliott. So my CPU3 became a GD on my laboratory with full features.
I'll try to make a how to to describe my steps (they are though described in a TC which I'll try to find and upload on pastebin). I don't think would be a problem to make it CS eather.

OK - I think I understand. But why would you want to use f.e. a CPU3 as a GA or GD?

Is it just incase you might need a GD and you don't have one, you can use a CPU3 instead and run a Media Gateway shelf of a CPU3?

knightr1der: tot3nkopf is talking about a CPU3 from OXO. If I understoud well, you think that he is talking about an old CPU3 from Crystal hardware.

Yes tincho - you have understood me 100%

Now that you mention OXO hardware it's making more sense to me :)

Sorry for goofing up the thread guys! :lol:

Freedom,

Of course when you tried to upgrade the board, you moved the jumpers, as requested in the doc. ?
