Could this be the model?

I am trying to find a manual. So far all the links want me to email for one.

And yes MHC that is the CPU. Their page was not letting me in. All other sites were going in fine.

Same thing but with one CPU. Will get back to you when I find some more info.

Just a note you need to have 10.3.5 or higher for the CPU to work properly. My Giga Design will not even load OSX if it's not the right version.

It looks like they are not selling the Single 1.7 any longer.

PowerLogix single 1.7GHz 7447A processor. thats what the auction says, is the "7447A" the model number? or what is that? it could be possible that its the wrong powerlogix firmware, i wonder if ic an download the firm ware from powerlogix....something i noticed also is that the firmware cd he game me was copy and had a laser printed lable attached on the top, so it could be very possible its not the right firmware.

Not to be stupid or anything, but just checking, it happens some times. Is the tower plugged in and getting power?
