Well I am confused...

I have a 40MHz 030 so I thought I would try and clock it to 50MHz.
Installed a 50MHz oscillator and no joy. Is there any clear info on what is needed for 50MHz? As I just read loads of different posts about firmware revisions and nothing is seemingly working for me. I have been getting odd IDE errors asking me if I want to suspend or reboot.
Either that or some revisions just blank screen.

Try removing the fpu if you have one installed.

Yeah I've done that. What I am asking is if there is anywhere that has info on a stable release? Also I've read posts where people have changed resistor values. It's all very confusing.

I've been using the binaries from here, and it worked (RAM tested ok, and Frontier ran):

As for the resistors, I used 1K everywhere, except for the network (RN3) near the FPU where I used 4.7K.

Sorry for any confusion - my 530 is running at 40 mhz, not 50. Don't know if that will make any difference.

Oh sorry about the late reply, I've been busy.
It turns out it was my PSU, I forgot it was crap at being pushed and I usually only use it for powering up boards I'm fixing. The little bit more power tipped it over the edge.
Anyhow, it now runs fine at 50MHz, save for the heat it's generating, so I may clock it back to 40MHz so I can close my case.
