Hi,
I'm not really sure which list this should go in. I have an odd problem
with my PB 3400c.
I currently have it runing OS 9.1 with an Orinoco wireless card.. .hard
drive is 40GB, 144MB of RAM, VM is dissabled:
I copy a folder that is just over 100MB from my G4 to the PB3400 over
Apple talk and wireless and it turns into almost 1GB on the PB3400
I make a stuffit file on the G4 of the just over 100MB folder. the
stuffit file is approx 14.1MB
I copy the stuffit file to the PB3400 where it turns into 15MB
I decompress it and it turns into almost 1GB
I delete the decompressed folder and restart with the orinoco card
ejected and the extentions manager set to OS 9.1 Base + Stuffit engine
I decompress it and it still turns into almost 1GB.
I have seen this happen a few times on this computer now and It's really
leaving me apsolutly frustrated. I've never seen this happen before
having this PB3400c but it seems to happen everytime I try to copy a
fairly large folder from the G4 to the PB3400c.
Then out of curiousity I hit the keyboard command for duplicate and the
copy the folder from the PB3400 to the PB3400...the copy dialog says
it's copying a 104MB file folder (which is the correct size) but in the
end the final output is another 906.9GB folder.
Anybody know what's going on?
-Matt
