Wrap-Up...
This concludes disassembly of the Power Macintosh 8500 or
9500. Before continuing with assembly of the Genesis MP, check
to ensure that you have all of the components from the 8500 or
9500 that will be reused in the Genesis MP:
• Power Macintosh Motherboard (in anti-static bag)
• Any previously installed RAM DIMMs
• Any previously installed PCI cards
• Hard drive(s) and other internal SCSI devices
• Floppy drive
• CD-ROM drive
• AC Power Cord
• Any previously installed VRAM DIMMs (8500 only)
• AV module and screws (8500 only)
• L2 Cache (socketed on 8500 only)
If your motherboard requires an upgrade, consult the upgrade liter-
ature that came with your Genesis MP Conversion for details on
preparing the motherboard for shipping. Motherboards requiring
upgrades must be upgraded before assembly of the Genesis MP
Conversion.
