Quadra 700 - so it's a 25MHz 68040. How much RAM

I can't check now since it's hosed. ?But I believe it's 4megs.
There's 4 simms in there I know.
For 8.1 you will need much more than 4MB -- 4MB would run 7.1 comfortably
but 7.6 is going to be unhappy and 8.1 will probably not even start (that
might have been the problem you had). Definitely verify total RAM. I wouldn't
attempt 8.1 with anything less than 16MB of RAM, and even that is going to
be somewhat painful. Try for 32MB.
I could easily be wrong. It might be 4 4s instead of 4 1s.
