Wireless card advice for my Wallstreet2 (SBC local phoneservice)
I've just subscribed to the SBC DSL...29.00/mo for a year. I ordered the wireless set up, and have a Sharp laptop with an 802.11b card built in, but prefer using my vintage 1998 Powerbook around the house for most use. Should I buy an Airport PCMCIA card for it, or one of the Orinocos, or one of the other cards that I hear about. Or does it make any difference as long as they comply to the IEE 802.11b standard. jf -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

iBook 300 - Strange Behavior

Re: Pismo 400 chiming
System 9.21 Running IE 5.1 mostly Microsoft Word 98 I have been getting times where the computer seems to freeze up the scroll bar. Also, I had a big problem with OE 5 for email and lost many messages. It seems that it may be related to RealPlayer. I have not been able to get real player to work and the last time I did run it is when I had the OE problem. My cable connection seems rather slow and I get so many messages telling me that there isn't enough memory to open another window when I have plenty of memory for the applications. I have 320 mg memory and my computer won't let me open Express and explorer with more than two windows. I have allocated more memory to OE. Is this the famous memory leak going on? I can't remember what to do for that. I am in the midst of getting together medical info for an appt with a specialist tomorrow and am more concerned with losing info than the computer problem. I have too much on my plate but want to take steps to prevent something worse from happening. Disk first aid is usually okay although sometimes it won't do it and says something another disk being in use. I have no partitions. Thanks!

Re: iBook 300 - Strange Behavior
I can't work out with certainty whether you're being supercilious or simply terse, so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. The most obvious candidate is simply to remove and reinstall any installed RAM expansion card. By this, I assume that you mean any extra additions made to the computer? Since the most likely user addition is RAM, which is retained only by spring clips and is often user-installed, it's also the most likely culprit for this problem - besides being the easiest candidate for a quick reseat-and-test. TTBOMK there are no other expansion/connectivity options for iBook which connect directly to any of the main internal buses, and hence no other obvious candidates. The flash is surface-mount, not socketed. Given the way AirPort is attached to the system, it's unlikely to be the culprit (since there is no startup chime and the screen never lights, it's probable that the CPU is either not running or has gone into deep space before or during power-on self-test, because of some device only partially connected the A/D buses that is coming on-bus when it's not supposed to, hence interfering with flash read cycles. It's not *likely* that AirPort could do this, though it is *possible*). But it could easily be an opened via or bad solder joint anywhere in the system. And by this, I think that you mean a connection on the mother board? What I said is anywhere in the system, which consists of the planar (what you refer to as the motherboard) and possibly other subassemblies. It's also quite possible that it's an electronic failure; for example, a cap gone bad in one of the SMPSs in the device, or an inductor with a cracked wire that used to be making contact but now isn't, or a ferrite-cored inductor that's cracked and has gradually lost core material and changed value until the SMPS oscillator no longer starts up (though the user would probably hear the pieces rattling around if this was the case). The HDD is powered from a +5V rail, so the fact that it spins up doesn't mean the PSUs are all good. It's perfectly possible that Vcore or Vio aren't being generated correctly. The symptoms are also not inconsistent with ESD to one of the major ICs in the unit. All that is, however, not germane to the issue, which is that the simplest and likeliest fix is to remove and/or reseat installed expansion RAM. No need to look for exotic explanations or detailed fault-finding techniques when a simple procedure is likely to fix the issue, and quite unlikely to cause further harm. -- Lewin A.R.W.

Ibook 700 and date time error
Hi, Our iBook 700 running 9.2.2 has developed the strangest error. On restart/boot, it gives a date time error message at finder launch that says the time zone is invalid.
