Default QuikPak Tower and Accelerator Question? [Update]

I've got a problem with the QuikPak 4000T I just purchased. It has the QuikPak 060 accelerator with 128MB of ram. The system works fine, I just spent all day cleaning it up, installing drives and getting OS 3.9 installed. I went to install my Video Toaster and Picasso IV and found out I can not get both in there at the same time. The VT has to go in the top slot and the accelerator card blocks the video slot. Drat. A think card like the Picasso II would fit, but the VT will not go under it. I'm fairly sure I'm stuck, but I thought I'd see if anyone had worked this out before?

I don't have a solution for the Picasso IV w/Toaster and QuickPak 060, but the Picasso II will go in any Zorro slot.

If you need a Picasso II and want to do a trade for the Picasso IV, let me know (of course I would add cash to make up the difference). Does your Picasso IV have the scan doubler module?

Thanks Dave, I've got a Picasso II around here I could use, but then I loose the scan doubler :-(

I'm thinking about moving the QuikPak 060 to my A3000T which has a Warpengine. The A4000T won't be as fast as I want but it will do.

Well, the QuikPak 060 accelerator fits fine in the A3000T. It actually makes everything seem faster? Question, can I use Phase5 library replacements to speed this up. CyberPatcher I believe it's called?
