I just installed FCP Studio 5.1. When I try to bring up the program, I get an info box that states:
Configuration Error This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing. -Power Macintosh G4 500 Mhz or dual G4 450 Mhz, or faster. I am running a Dual 1.5 Ghz G4, Powerlogix upgrade, OS X 1.4.6 with 1.5 SDRAM. My FCP Studio is a legal version. FCP and DVD Studio Pro run ok, but even Soundtrack (regular) gives the same error code. Am I missing an installation file or what? FCP 4.5 and Soundtrack Regular ran fine before the install.

So it's looking for some kind of CPU signature? The original CPU is not a factor since it was thrown into the recycle bin 2 or 3 years ago. The entire CPU and attendant circuitry is part of the upgrade. Benchmarking test show that this is indeed a Dual 1.5g computer. Saying that, however, when "About this Mac" information is requested, the info box says that it is a 0 Mhz computer. That might be the issue. I'll see if Powerlogix has any kind of patch to full the operating system.

Found the answer on the Powerlogix web site. Since the upgrade does not properly report the processor speed, Sountrack and SP see the processors as 0Mhz speed. Editing the info file and setting the MinimumCPUSpeed flag for both, fixes the problem.
