OWC's Tech Center has a page of ixMicro driver and software downloads << http://eshop.macsales.com/Tech/index.cfm?load=ixmicro.html >>.

Note that a couple of the links for the TwinTurbo 128 aren't correct, but the latest version of the drivers and control panel are available.

The latest version appears to be tt128 v 4.06, although the files it installs all read v 4.0 in a file get info window. The installer installs the Twin Turbo™ Control Panel, the Twin Turbo™ Acceleration, Twin Turbo™ M8 Upgrade, and Twin Turbo™ Upgrade extensions, the Twin Turbo™ Control Strip module, and the Twin Turbo™ Gamma Loader startup item.

I've had it running for a couple of days now under OS 9.2.2 on a PowerMac 8600/300 driving an Apple MultipleScan 15AV monitor at a resolution of 832 x 624, 75 Hz. and either thousands/millions of colors depending on what I'm doing.

I haven't tried the 1024x768 75 Hz. resolution yet because it totally screws up my pop-up folder arrangement along the bottom of the screen, and I don't want to have to take the time right now to rearrange them after switching back to 832x624.

So far, in 72 hours, I haven't had any problems, other than noticing that the board is much slower in millions of colors than the Apple/ATI Mach 64 it replaced.

Hope this helps.
