hard drive swap 3400 to Wallstreet
Hi list, is there any reason why I couldn't take a 2gig drive with os8.6 installed out of my 3400c and install it in my Wallstreet as a temporary solution until I find another drive. Thanks.

Re: adding a firewire port
Date: Thu, 9 Oct 2003 14:14:58 -0700 Subject: Adding a Firewire port From: Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, I'm recording with my Powerbook and a MOTU 828 audio interface. I am also using a firewire hard drive to write tracks to. My question has to do with adding a firewire port. I only have one on my Powerbook, and was previously using the built-in hub port on the firewire hard drive case. That port failed last night, and no longer is recognized by my Powerbook. Should I buy a Firewire hub? Or, should I buy a PC Card with a Firewire port? I'm interested in bandwidth problems that may happen by having an 828 and a hard drive on the same firewire bus. Is it better to use a PC Card or a hub? Mark Hi Mark, the the only thing I can tell you is this: I have a Pismo with both OS 9.2 and OS X an 828 MkI and a VST PCMIA firewire card. OS 9 cannot see the MOTU on the cardbus port, only on the built in firewire ports while OS X accepts it on both, and it works like a charm. My drives and CDRW are recognized everywhere by both OS's. Hope this helps. Simon -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Wallstreet processor swap
Hi list, does anyone know if it is possible to replace the microprocessor board in a '98 G3 series 233mhz Wallstreet with the 233mhz cacheless board from an earlier model Mainstreet? My friend's Wallstreet won't start up (no startup chime) and we want to do the swap to see if the problem is in the processor and/or the ram. Also would the we be at risk of harming the good board if other components such as the power manger or i/o boards are faulty? Any info you can provide would be much appreciated.

Simon Stone --- The repair manual has a spreadsheet showing which combinations of processor and logic boards will work. It is described based on the serial numbers of the processor card and logic boards. I went through a bit of a tangle until I got the correct pieces to put a Wallstreet back in operation (still have some of the extra pieces). I can clip and send you a copy of the chart if you wish. ken Thanks Ken, I downloaded what appears to be the service/takeapart pdf and found the spreadsheets, it seem like my 233mhz cacheless board will work with three of the four logic boards in the G3 series of computers. While looking through the manual I read that my friend's problem could also be due to a faulty keyborad, we removed it and the book was happy, end of story. Thanks again.

Re: Chopshop wallstreet
That was my reaction too, but at keast we know it's possible. Simon From: Andrew Chong [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Chopshop wallstreet For that kind of outlay I think I'd get myself a newer PowerBook. There's a screen on ebay UK, one can't help pondering the possibilities. Oh well. Cheers. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
