Re: lombard DVD decoder
Does the DVD decoder on the lombard motherboard work under X ? If you mean the built-in decoder on the 400 MHz models, absolutely. (I cannot comment on the 300 MHz models). You may need to use PatchBurn if you have updated your media bay to include a CD/DVD-ROM-R-R/W drive. With the super drives which are in the distributor inventory right now, mainly the Pioneer DVR-K05 and Panasonic UJ-845S, you will probably have to use PatchBurn in order to cover all variations of DVD media. The built-in decoder works well. DVD writing is reliable at 2X, usually reliably at 4X, and fails at greater than 4X, and that failure is on account of the poor grounding provided within the media bay itself. These same drives will not fail at any speed if installed as directed, using an 80-wire/40-pin cable. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: lombard DVD decoder
So you can buy one of these mechanisms and swap it with the old one on the housing ? Absolutely. Just make sure it is a 12.7mm model and that it has a universal 50 pin miniature connector, as all of them now do. The Lombard/Pismo bezel will not fit any current drive, so there will be a cosmetic issue, and the slot loader is probably the best, cosmetically and operationally. (The Pioneer DVR-K15, a variation of the previously mentioned DVR-K05, is tray loading. The bezel from the stock Panasonic/Matshita definitely will not fit the front of this drive :( ). The DVR-K05/K15 is supported by 10.4 without PatchBurn; is supported by 10.3 with PatchBurn. The Panasonic UJ-845S requires PatchBurn in both cases). I believe the true super drive is a DVR-K04. The DVR-K05 is an upgraded model which supports two-layer writing/rewriting. The UJ-845S also supports two-layer writing/rewriting. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: lombard DVD decoder
I thought the DVD DECODER was for reading movies ? Why does a DVD DECODER impact writing DVDs ? Obviously, I volunteered more informantion than you asked for. My use of my Lombard and Pismos is authoring (writing) and verifying (reading) DVDs, almost equally. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Need advice and help with wallstreet
Hey guys Thank you for the replies. This problem started after I dissembled the unit to paint the case, after putting it back together apparently a piece of the foil from the bottom case became curled under the sound card shorting it sometimes. I found it this afternoon when I took it apart again. This is what caused the unit to power off sometimes when it was moved or the screen moved.

Re: Need advice and help with wallstreet
Well, that makes me feel really good, Gary. Apparently, some educated guessing gave you the motivation to tear into the Wallstreet. However, if you had mentioned that you had early disassembled the case, I would definitely have asked you about a misplaced part, shield or other obstruction. Congratulations. rb PS Aren't Macs wonderful; what other notebooks would you tear apart for case painting or for self-repair? -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
