iBook 700 and date time error on start-up
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. It also turns off Appletalk. Anyone heard of this before or know of a fix? I've searched but not found anything. Thanks! Michael -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Ram upgrade crashing in OSX Lombard
I tried to post to G-books (for the first time) and it bounced back my message, ill havta figure that one out later. As many as 10% of all of the first 1999 powerbook lombards had (have) a daughtercard that has a faulty chipset. The problems manifest themselves in the RAM upgrades. It has been said that they can only run the original 64 MB ram that shipped with it without trouble. I have one and have been running 192 MB without much trouble, i bought it used from Half.com and only ran into trouble when i tried to add a 256 Mb module. I immediately got severe glitches and program crashes, slow startups etc. etc. It absolutely would not allow me to re-install OSX without failing, untill i put the original ram chips (that came with mine) back in... Its said that the problems get uglier with processor intensive applications, or running more than one application. I am only using mine to get online and dont suffer many problems other than AOL quiting unexpectadly... There is a program that you can download from either the lowendmac websight or xlr8yourmac.com. It runs in OS 9 and will tell you if you have the faulty processor. I originally did a Google search for 'Lombard problems OSX' which led me to the articles about the faulty daughtercards... I can only hope you got bad RAM cause its a cheaper fix than replacing the daughtercard.

RAM upgrade crashing OS X in PB Lombard
Hi, I upgraded my PB G3 Lombard to 512k RAM (2x256) and now OS X crashes just as the finder is finishing loading. Anyone have any advice, suggestions, fixes? I've combed knowledge bases and so far have had no luck. The RAM vendor (OWC) suggested I boot without extensions. Clearly that tech person doesn't use OS X... ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Michael Thompson 8753 Deer Path Eden Prairie, MN 55344 Phone: 952-829-5390 Mobile: 612-991-0002 www.4brothers.net/michael/ -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
