| The Crescendo/Encore installer hangs, or crashes the system; occurs most often when run from the Sonnet installer CD. | May-12-09 |
| Under certain conditions, the Crescendo/Encore Installer application encounters conflicts that cause it to hang, or even crash the computer when the computer is booted in Mac OS 9 with extensions on.
Solution:
1) If you have attempted to run the application directly from the Sonnet Installer CD, copy the Crescendo/Enc Ins file from the CD to the desktop (single-click and drag the file from the Mac OS 7-9 ONLY, not CLASSIC folder on to the desktop). Otherwise, go to step 2.
2) Restart the computer under Mac OS 9 with extensions off (hold down the Shift key when you turn on the computer until the message "Extensions Off" appears).
3) Launch the Crescendo/Encore Installer from the desktop and follow the instructions. |

| Which current Encore/ST G4 processor upgrades include a pre-attached heat sink? | May-12-09 |
| All models in the Encore/ST G4 line made today, except for those with a part number that starts with SG4-C, include a pre-attached heat sink. Products with a part number that starts with SG4-C are for use only in Power Mac G4 Cube, and do not include a pre-attached heat sink. |

| I purchased an Encore/ST G4 processor upgrade that is just a card; is it less reliable than one with a pre-attached heat sink? | May-12-09 |
| When installed correctly, the Encore/ST G4 card reusing the Apple heat sink is just as reliable as the more recent Encore/ST G4 card with a pre-attached Sonnet heat sink. Sonnet chose to pre-attach a heat sink to Encore/ST G4 upgrades (except for those with a part number that starts with SG4-C) because we determined that some users did not properly attach the Apple heat sink and clips, and we wanted to make the installation process easier. |
