Re: Dead Wallstreet
Pat Heidingsfelder said: So I figured I would break it open and unplug the pram battery. Please don't use such strong words as break around here. It's scary. Did you ground yourself when you took it apart? Tried it out, same thing. I am just going to have to unplug the pram, or could it be something else? Any tips to getting to the pram plug? I don't think that will help. As your fan spins you do have power. Also, you don't say if the HD spins up or not. Also, if you get more life into it but you still can't boot, you can try and boot into Open Firmware by holding Cmd-Opt-O-F and typing set-defaults + return + reset-all + return. Then try and boot from CD by holding down key c My best advice, leave it plugged in for a couple of days. That have helped many seemingly dead machines. After that, remove one RAM chip at a time, replace with known good. As for getting to the PRAM backup battery you need to (after you have grounded yourself) remove the: · AC adapter · Expansion bay modules · Keyboard · Heat sink (after this you can touch the cage as an alternative way to grounding, but this means you should actually leave the power supply in and be connected to a grounded outlet via power supply with a ground cable. Better to just get a grounding wriststrap.) · Clutch cover (careful as not break the plastics) · Display (be very careful with the cables) · Hard drive · Modem or modem plug · Microprocessor board top case · Top Case on the underside you'll find the PRAM backup battery connected to the PMU board. I do wonder if unplugging the PMU card could potentially have the same effect as unplugging the PRAM battery. I'm not sure.

Re: Pismo in Profound Vegatative State
Thanks Alejandro and Lauren also. I got it to boot with the OS9 software restore CD and ran Disk First Aid, which showed errors on the hard drive. Then it froze before I could let Disk First Aid attempt any repairs and I haven't been able to get it to boot again. thanks again, Dyna On Tuesday, November 23, 2004, at 01:43 PM, Alejandro wrote: Hi. Check booting on OS 9 and deleting the System and the Library Folders. Make a Back Up of the Preferences folder (Users/Username/Library/Preferences) and then delete the Users folder (of course, make a Back Up of ALL your stuff located on Documents, Pictures, Movies, Music, etc.). Once the Trash is empty, try reinstalling OS X. If everything goes fine, you will be able to add your dcuments and your preferences again (add your preferences very slowly, no more than ten each time and check restarting for checking them). If soemthing goes wrong, boot on OS 9 and remove those preferences. Good Luck. --- Dyna [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My 2000 Pismo running OS10.2 has become near impossible to boot.

Re: iBook 500 - runs on battery ONLY ???
Answer: Yes, tried with a working PA (Power Adapter). If it doesn't run on AC, then maybe the connector has came loose from the logic board? If the iBook doesn't have a separate DC/sound board like other PowerBooks, then that would mean the logic board is defective. It does, I'd suspect the DC board or it's cable. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Tom, I think I can at least help you solve your problem. I'm willing to bet that you replaced your H.D. with a IBM/Hitachi drive. That's not the only brand that has caused sleep problems in the Wallstreet, but it's one of the most infamous. The problem is a magnet within the drive that lines up with and confuses the magnetic sleep sensor located on the Wallstreet in the area between the Delete and Return keys. Thus the wakeup problems with the PB. Once you understand the problem, the solution is fairly simple. In fact, there are 2 or 3 solutions. You have discovered one of them -- the kitchen magnet swipe. But that's a pain the butt IMPO. I prefer a more permanent solution. A lot of Wallstreet owners have used the following solution: Tape a small ***demagnetized*** piece of metal on top of the drive to block the field from interfering with the sensor. Just get one of those snap-off blade utility knives at your local hardware store. Break off a piece long enough to cover the hard drive mounting bracket on the top far right side, demagnetize it, tape in place and re-install the drive. But I used an even simpler solution: I bought a roll of foil tape from Home Depot for 3 bucks. Two layers of that in the specified area (the right-hand end of the drive), and everything worked as described. The foil tape is cheap and easy to find. I recommend it. I haven't had the first problem with my IBM/Hitachi drive, as I used the tape before initially installing the drive.

APA-1480 scsi cardbus os x support
I've done my best to answer this without bothering the list but... I've received a cardbus Adaptec 1480A SlimSCSI pcmcia card and was hoping to integrate it into my Pismo (10.3.6, g3-500) for scanning, jaz drive, etc. It reports itself upon insertion as an APA-1480 scsi host adaptor, allowing me to power off the card but otherwise the name is all I get. Under system profiler, the pc card specs show as TXN,PCI1211-00: Name: cardbus Type: cardbus Bus: PCI Slot: PC Card Vendor ID:0x104c Device ID:0xac1e Revision ID: 0x Does anyone have any familiarity with this particular scsi adaptor on mac os x? I fear it has no 'mac' support but it would figure that maybe a linux driver has been ported or someone has another way of enabling/using this device. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
