I reccomend you move that SCSI card to Slot 7.  Now, back to your Zip
question: You are using the WDC 14Mhz 65816, right?  If not, you can't
push the 7 or 8Mhz 65816 to 15Mhz.  Also, I've heard that quite
a few of those 14Mhz 65816's were bad, most notably Long's (as noted in
the most recent ZIP FAQ).  The self-test is incredible at 14Mhz/64k :)
Good luck!
