[comp.sys.hp] Putting 25MHZ 68040 upgrade into 400s

lepreau%mancos.utah.edu@cs.utah.edu (Jay Lepreau) (03/12/91)

Does anyone know if it will work to put the 68040 400t upgrade into a
400s instead?  The 400t expects a 25 Mhz chip, the 400s a 33 Mhz.
I don't wait to wait forever for the latter to arrive.
Thanks for any info.

I recently talked to my sales rep and he says that this can be done.  However,
this was not an official word and you should confirm it with HP.

There is a product that HP is now selling to allow you to upgrade a 400s to a
425s.  I don't know the product number, but your HP sales rep can help you.
