Posted by: CTB on 2022-04-27 18:41:13What do I have here? This looks like it might be an 040 to PPC upgrade card yet it doesn’t have any identifying marks on it. If that is what it is what models was it intended for, LC474, Quadra 650?

Looks like a DayStar Digital PowerCard 601, nice!
I can see the bottom “Digital” of the DayStar Digital logo mark in your 2nd picture. I think the jumper on the top right side means you have the 100MHz model 🙂
Works with:
Quadra 605, LC and Performa 470 Series
LC and Performa 570 & 580 Series
Quadra, LC and Performa 630 Series

If you would be willing to sell this please PM me, want one badly.

Maybe I have no clue these are pretty hard to find

Yep, the Apple Power Macintosh Upgrade Card (2x bus speed, 256k cache) and the DayStar PowerPro or PowerCard (2x-4x bus speed, 256k-1MB cache.)

Oh, well spotted, I totally missed that until I went back after your post and looked. Yes, that's definitely the bottom half of the Daystar logo.
Posted by: macuserman on 2022-04-28 03:46:03Anyone know where to find the software for this with the enabler? I haven’t had much luck looking although I’m not sure exactly what I’m looking for so that might be part of the problem.
Posted by: jeremywork on 2022-04-28 03:54:26The PowerPro control panel here should work:
For a more vanilla experience with just a single switch, Apple's "Power Macintosh Card" control panel or "601 Processor Upgrade" control panel should also do the trick.
Posted by: macuserman on 2022-12-02 12:34:14Anyone have any tricks for getting the original processor to seat fully on the host card? Mine doesn't want to seat down fully and I can't seem to get it to budge, any kind of ideas would be appreciated.
