Well, my CSPPC/060 is running in my A3000T ATM with a dead PPC chip. It runs
just like a CS060 MkIII.

What happened was....the fan on my PPC chip died one day, the next thing I
knew was that any PPC-using program caused a crash. Turns out that the area
of PCB around the chip was actually burned! I sent it to phase 5 and
eventually got it back nearly a year later - but they said it was
irrepairable. So I just put it back in my A3k and everything works bar the
PPC.

Cheers.
