thermal transfer material in PBG4 ?
Anyone have suggestions what the thermal transfer material (1) used on the CPU on Powerbook G4 logic board is? I have used cooling paste before on the Powerbook G3s, but I suspect this is something else? The repair manual indicates I should use new materials, so implicitly it's bad idea to reuse the old material, if at all possible. Any ideas for obtaining such materials except from Apple? I can get it from Apple, but still would like to know of other sources. Mikael (1) Page 76 of the Powerbook G4 Titanium repair manual.

Re: anyone familiar with this problem/recommend repairer city of Chicago?
Many thanks again Bruce Malcolm. Sounds like the cost may not be too horrific? That brings me to another Q before I hit the Internet/Yellow Pages---might anyone happen to have a recommendation for a reasonably priced G3/Wallstreet repairer within the city of Chicago (not the suburbs--I don't have wheels), or failing that, a mail-in repair company? (I did come across one on the net that sends you the box, picks up and gives you an estimate for $79, but I didn't keep the name and now can't find them again). I have seriously thought about attempting it on my own, after looking at the reassuring pbfixit site guides--it would save $$$, plus it's tempting to test my skills or lack of them in a live-dangerously sort of way. But knowing how inexperienced I am, common sense prevails--I really need to get someone experienced to do it as time is of the essence. Thanks again! I really appreciate it! Kerry The symptoms are the same, so I'm going to stick to the diagnosis of a bad cable or cable connection.

Re: Windows Wireless on a Mac Network
The National Enquirer reports at 8:22 AM -0500 3/11/05, Mike wrote: Bob wrote: Anybody using a Windows98 notebook on a Apple ABS (wireless) network? I'd like a recommendation on a dependable WiFi 803.11b PC card for the Windows machine. Oh, I'm using the ABS dial-up modem if that matters, I have a Gateway and Dell desktop hooked up with this Pismo and an iMac SE 400 and Airport base (Graphite)...Initially tried a Nextel card in the W systems but it just wouldn't work...Switched to the Belkin cards and they took off immediately and are working fine together with the Macs. The Nextel cards just wouldn't see the ABS but the Belkin hooked on instantly. I have Verizon DSL running to the ABS then out. HTH Mike Thanks for your input, Mike. I took your information to heart and bought a Belkin 802.11g card for my Dell Latitude. I really didn't want a g-card, but that's all the local CompUSA had at the time and I needed it right then to help my son trouble-shoot a problem on his Windows network. Anyway, I wonder if you would be kind enough to help me sort through a few things with this Belkin/Dell setup? I know very little about the Windows side of things. (Then why did I buy the Dell? Well, I have one specific need that can't be done on a Mac, and that will also require being able to download updates from the Internet. So I want to share the Internet connection on my Airport wireless network.) Unfortunately, I have a very limited network. I'm using the modem in the ABS to connect to the Internet. It works fine for the Macs that I have connected (albeit pretty slow). But, so far, I haven't been able to get the Dell to get an wireless Internet connection on that network. I wonder if that's due to my not having the Dell set up properly. I was able to connect to my son's wireless cable modem without any difficulty, so that much is known to be working. The Dell utility says it's connected to my Airport and the Dell icon at the bottom right of the desktop turns green. The signal strength shows something like 85%, so all is good there too. But I can't get MSIE to connect to the Internet. When I checked to Belkin settings, I saw that it was trying to use a 192.x.x.x IP address, whereas my network is using 10.0.1..x. So, with a little help I went into winipcfg and manually changed the settings there to 10.0.1.5 for the Dell, and changed the sub-net mask to the right one. I didn't know what it was referring to when it listed gateway (are they using that term for the router?) so I didn't put any info there. And I didn't set any place to enter primary or secondary DNS IPs. I can't help but wonder if one, or both of those are what is preventing the Dell from using the Internet connection on my network. When I run winipcfg again, I don't get the same dialog windows to fill-in or change, so I'm not sure how to enter the gateway or find a place for the DNS IPs. Any help you can provide would be **greatly** appreciated. I can't ask these questions on a Mac list. The next best thing is a kindly Mac user that's familiar with Windows. :-) P.S. Just a reminder, I'm using Windows98 on the Dell.

Classic won't start
I Folks, I have an ailing Pismo. I upgraded to X.3.8 a few days ago and within two days Classic would not start. I repaired permissions several times with different apps. The Apple knowledgebase has been searched thoroughly and all the fixes I could find were tried just short of a clean install, which I am trying to avoid. I just get the warning You are running Classic without superuser (root) privileges I can boot if I login under root or with an OS9 boot disk. OSX is a little quirky, all the invisible files and folders are visible!

Yes, if the only available phone outlet is used by the DSL modem, you should unplug it and plug a cable that goes to your Pismo's internal modem. Usually, when you have DSL, the phone company should have provided you with filters that you use when connecting regular phone-based devices, so you might want to use one to plug the cable coming from the internal modem. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelinhttp://nemesys.dyndns.org Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gates's Law: The speed of software halves every 18 months.
