Happy New Year!

Subject: USB PC Card on Wallstreet
Hi listers,
I am desperately trying to get a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Notebook
Card running with by Wallstreet (2nd revision, 233 MHz, upgraded to
466 MHz, 256 MB RAM). The Belkin-Card is supposed to run with OS 8.6
to X, but my PB always freezes in short time when I put it in the PC
card-Slot. It is recognized in the System Profiler, however. I have
installed OS 9.1, 9.2.2, the USB-Card-Support 1.4.1 - to no avail.
Unfortunately, installing OS X is not an option, as my processor
upgrade refuses to work with it (the processor is not the culprit,
however, as the problem with the USB-card persists when using the old
(very sloow) processor).
I have no idea if this is related or not, but my OrangeLink Firewire
CadBus Card does not work, too (though it should as well). It is not
even recognized in the System Profiler.
Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
Nils

Re: USB PC Card on Wallstreet

[Nils Mueller-Scheessel]

Many thanks to James, Bob and the others who answered my request. 
Having set the processor to save power when on battery exactly was 
the culprit! Now the card works fine. Such a simple solution to a 
problem which nearly drove me crazy Š

Many thanks again!
Nils

Seems almost everyone, including me, gets caught by this. Symptoms - The 
WallStreet works fine with a USB card whilst on mains power but freezes 
up under battery power. 

The solution is to turn off Allow processor cycling under Settings for 
Battery, in Control Panels, Energy Saver, Advanced Settings. Now the USB 
card should work fine. At least it did for me.  

HTH

You probably have processor cycling turned on in the Energy Saver 
control panel (or, if you're like me,  you may a similar Control 
Strip Module). If processor cycling is enabled you **will** get 
consistent freezes shortly after bootup.

Turn of processor cycling both in the AC settings and battery 
settings and I'm willing to be your problems will disappear.

BTW you *do* know, don't  you, that you will only be able to use the 
USB card at 1.1 speeds unless you are in OS X?

HTH,


Bob

I have this same card on my Wallstreet II and it works fine with the 
power cord attached to the card. With out the power cord attached only 
the USB roller mouse from Kensington works. Hope that this helps

Re: USB PC Card on Wallstreet

[James W. Buesing]

I had a similar problem years ago with a different powerbook and software,
but mine would only happen when I was on battery.  After shipping it to
Apple, etc., etc., a tech locally said to change the energy saver so it
wouldn't cut back on power on battery because the PC card needed continuous
power or it would crash the whole system.  For what it's worthgood luck

USB PC Card on Wallstreet

[Nils Mueller-Scheessel]

Hi listers,
I am desperately trying to get a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Notebook 
Card running with by Wallstreet (2nd revision, 233 MHz, upgraded to 
466 MHz, 256 MB RAM). The Belkin-Card is supposed to run with OS 8.6 
to X, but my PB always freezes in short time when I put it in the PC 
card-Slot. It is recognized in the System Profiler, however. I have

Unfortunately, installing OS X is not an option, as my processor 
upgrade refuses to work with it (the processor is not the culprit, 
however, as the problem with the USB-card persists when using the old

I have no idea if this is related or not, but my OrangeLink Firewire 
CadBus Card does not work, too (though it should as well). It is not 
even recognized in the System Profiler.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
