WallStreet upgrade: enquiries and ruminations
Fellow gentlebeings, I'm sure I saw it discussed somewhere (here? on applefritter? some obscure web forum in another dimension? in a dream? i dream of long lists of mac-related hardware these days, you know . . .), but I can't seem to find the link now, if there was one in the first place. And so: presumably, my G3 300 WallStreet can handle a maximum of 512 megs of RAM. I wanted to clarify a few points concerning the exact specifications of the modules I shall have to use. SPD. Check. Chips on both shoulders . . . ahem, sides of the module. Got it. Make sure it's 144-pin (the other kind wouldn't fit, anyway). Fine. 100/133 mhz shouldn't really make that much of a difference due to backwards compatibility, insofar as I understand it. Okay so far. The question is: is the above list of criteria exhaustive? Anything else I might be overlooking? Any known caveats? Also - is there such a thing as a list of 256-meg RAM modules tested on WallStreets and known to work? Any notoriously nasty modules? Most curious; this beast runs a total of 192 now (OS X 10.2 sans Classic, I was an idiot to format the drive and NOT install MacOS 9 anywhere, but those were the salad days of the Mac user in me; another excuse that I have is that I actually followed the advice of another Mac user, a daft and dangerous tosser, as it turns out, but he seemed knowledgeable at the time, so there; still on the lookout for a copy of the nine). Next: there was much talk here about Wegener Media, and, going by the amount of dissatisfied customers, my best option would be to avoid them like the plague. Yet they appear to carry the cheapest CPU upgrades for the WallStreet. Given the choice between G3 500 and G4 500, which would you go for? Is there any reason the former is actually some 20 USD more expensive than the latter, although chronology suggests the reverse to be more logical? On their site they claim that I'll only need the G4 features if I work with video. Not the case with yours truly; however, this machine is definitely used for audio (for the meantime, Csound is the absolute champion speed- and stability-wise; however, after the upgrade I intend to delve a great deal further into the world of GUI ). So yeah: do I really need a G4, and are there any cheaper/faster options, such as getting the G3 and overclocking it, or is 500 mhz the limit on a WallStreet because of bus speed? Low priority issue: the LCD looks bleak, as though someone has gone and sucked the very essence of colour out of it, devouring the contrast for desert. Must be the relentless demon of age; the calibration tool doesn't do much beyond making the hues look sombre and funereal. Also, it proudly wears a couple of battle decorations commonly referred to as dead pixels. I'd love to replace it, but how do I go about it, exactly? Will a generic 14 panel do the trick? If the answer to this one is in the positive, is there any chance I might perform the transplantation myself with the assistance of a soldering iron, a Torx screwdriver, a Sisters of Mercy album, a Talk Talk album, a Joni Mitchell album, a gallon of Coca-Cola, a gramme of sulfate and five packets of fags? If not, where do I look for one? Should I just get me a complete screen assembly and discover the LCD panel to be just as bleak as the one I have? Please advise. I have more questions, but I suspect the Procrustean message size quota may well have been exceeded already; if not, the above opus is all yours to peruse and ridicule.

Re: WallStreet upgrade: enquiries and ruminations
100/133 mhz shouldn't really make that much of a difference due to backwards compatibility, insofar as I understand it. There's industry standard backward compatibility and then there's Mac standard backward compatibility. Wallstreets will not accept many high density PC100 and PC133 sticks. A PC100/PC133 stick may indeed be 256 MB (and low profile, too), but a Wallstreet may read this as only 128 MB, even though the on-stick EEPROM says it is 256 MB. Wallstreets and similar machines (Beige G3, for example) have problems with high density chips, and more particularly high density chips on one or both sides of the stick. Even low density chips on both sides of the stick can be a problem. Later machines, say, BW and Lombard/Pismos do not have these same issues. This seems to be a characteristic of the DRAM controller chip used on the two affected series of machines, Beige DT/MT/AIO and 1998 PB. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

wallstreet connection
Greetings, I have a Wallstreet that I am trying to connect to my cable modem. I know the modem works, because I can connect with my BW. I take the ethernet cable from the back of the BW and connect it to the ethernet port on the Wallstreet and then start it up. I try to connect using IE, but it doesn't connect. I am running 10.2 on the wallstreet. I have the configuration set to DHCP server and the IP address has changed from 000.000 to one similiar to my BW. Any ideas? Thanks, Lee __ Do You Yahoo!?

Thanks, Lee The easiest way would be to put a router between the cable modem and the other computers. To do what you are trying, I expect that you will have to unplug the modem, connect the Wallstreet, and then power up the modem and then the Wallstreet. Check the settings in the TCP/IP control panel (or whatever it is called in OS 10.2.8 - can't recall at the moment). Generally, the modem gets the MAC address of the first device it sees and expects that to be the only device attached. A router fools the modem and passes out addresses as needed.

Re: wallstreet connection
Stardate 060204.13:31 -0800. A subspace message from l s reads: I have a Wallstreet that I am trying to connect to my cable modem. I know the modem works, because I can connect with my BW. This could well be an issue with your modem, and not the laptop. You see, cable ISPs used to be quite narky about the number of machines that could be connected, so cable modems were made to 'spoof' the MAC address (the physical identifier of your computer's ethernet interface chip - MAC stands for Media Access Controller) of the first *real* ethernet device plugged into it. My guess is this is what the modem has done, and to reset this 'spoofed' MAC address, you need to do a full factory reset of the modem. The process for this will differ from modem to modem, so you should contact your ISP and tell them you're changing machines and you need to know how to do this factory-defaults trick. Once you *have* reset the modem, do *NOT* plug a computer into it - in fact, don't even turn it on yet. Instead, nip out to any PC shop and buy a small ethernet switch (not a plain 'hub', you need a device with its own valid MAC address). Plug this into the cable modem, and your Macs into the switch. It is important that you power everything up in *just* the right order, or you will have to start this all over again with another factory-reset of the modem. This is the order: - the switch - your main computer (the BW) - the cable-modem - your laptop, and any other computers you may have hooked in. ... and even then, there is no guarantee this will work, depending on both the ISP and the cable-modem. What I suggest you do instead, is buy a second ethernet interface for your snurftower (hey, it's blue and white, and cute - byte me ;)), leave it hooked up to the cable modem as you have done normally, and hook the laptop to the new ethernet socket. Then, go to your System Preferences, open Networks, and then to your onboard ethernet interface. Select Share this connection. This will now activate OS X's built-in internet connection sharing and DHCP system - any computer(s) plugged into your *new* ethernet port on the BW *should* be able to see and use the internet that's coming in from your cable modem.

Re: WallStreet DVD-ROM issue, perchance?
Also - if my display can't keep vertical and needs something heavy to lean against, does it mean my hinges are pushing up the daisies? Well, it means the hinges are broken. Nothing one can do about that except replacing the hinges. I bought a used Wallstreet off ebay for the price two new hinges would have cost me and had the complete screen replaced. As I had a 14 screen and the bought Wallstreet only had a 13 screen I now oughta have the only Wallstreet which lets you select screen resolutions in the Monitor control panel... - so the technician told me.

Re: WallStreet DVD-ROM issue, perchance?
I was able to get a Pismo on eBay for $200+s/h. I did spend money to add memory and move to a 500 MHz processor. I think that I got 'lucky' because the comp's description included a pink-light-on-start- up-but -goes-away-after-a-seconds issue. The latter hasn't bothered me in the least. I've priced out the replacement. I think I'll be with this one for a while. I was happy with the WS for basic internet surfing and note-taking. When I decided I wanted to use Keynote for several school presentation, the WS became obsolete.

WallStreet doesn't completely start
What could be wrong with this WallStreet (10.2.8, 512 RAM, Sonnet G4 processor) ? At startup, the desktop doesn't fully load. Sometimes the menu bar comes into view, sometimes not, but the weird thing that whatever is in view -- clock, battery indicator, menu bar -- the items open on click, but don't do anything. Same with the Dock. If I mouse over the Dock, it appears, but the icons don't work. If I start in OS 9.2.1, it works OK, but freezes intermittently, which is also weird because that never happens when it's running in Classic (but that's actually different, isn't that true?). -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: WallStreet doesn't completely start
I had a similar problem when my Sonnet G4/500 CPU was installed under OS 9.1 (upgraded from 8.1 at the same time). The problem was that the heat shield wasn't properly installed and thus the heat during bootup became too great and the machine froze.

The power jack is on the Sound/AC in board of the Wallstreet, IIRC (Thankfully I haven't had to open mine in a very long time.) If you're handy with the soldering gun, you can probably just fix the cracked solder connections on the bottom of the jack that are likely causing the problem. 99% of the time that's the fix. If you're not a fan of soldering then you can take your chances with a new Sound/power board on eBay or the swap list.

Re: Can you fix a wallstreet power jack?
I have a Wallstreet that had that problem. There is a known issue with the Wallstreet jacks. I took it apart and soldered the board, and so far, it now works fine.

Re: Advice Needed - Wallstreet upgrade
I have installed 10.3 on my Wallstreet with the help of XPostFacto and it worked well after working out two hitches that were known at the time. One was related to the colors on the screen (a lot of purple :-)) and was solved by removing a specific file (don't remember exactly but the issue was well documented). The other was the lack of built-in support for the ejection of cardbus cards (solved by downloading a kext that someone had prepared). After that, it has been working strong ever since and is now running 10.3.9 (using just the regular Software Update feature for all updates since the initial install). Thanks Luis It's beginning to seem like making a bootable copy with Xpostfacto on my G4 with the Panther DVD, then cloning it to the Wallstreet with CarbonCopyCloner may be possible, though fraught with peril... maybe I'm better off buying the Panther cd without iLife. -- Frank Dutra -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

G3 Wallstreet CDROM drive tray won't open all the way
I recently became the proud owner of an Apple G3 Wallstreet. The CDROM drive, M2451, has a problem where when the drive is opened, the tray only slides out *half way*. The tray only extends to the point where about half of the spindle (the center part that grabs onto the CD hole) is visible. Out of desperation I carefully removed the top metal cover of the CD drive and looked around inside but as of yet I do not see what is preventing the tray from opening fully. Has anyone had this problem and solved it? Aside from this problem, the drive works well because I was able to install Mac OS 8.6. You may ask how did I manage to do this when the drive only opens half way? Apparently when I first got the machine, the CD tray DID extend far enough to let me insert a CD - but I don't remember seeing the tray opening all the way, but it must have because it is almost impossible to insert a CD with the tray half open, without scratching the CD. I hope I can fix this problem and not have to buy a new CD drive. Thanks. Eddie -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Advice Needed - Wallstreet upgrade
Hi All, new to this list... seems like a great place. My dilemma is with a partially restored series 11 (266) Wallstreet. Last year I put in a 40 gb HD, extra ram (256 total), a USB (ADS 2.0 turbo) card, and an 802.11b Wireless Lan card, running OS 9.2.2 and !0.2. Worked great for my purposes at that time but I know find myself traveling more and hoping to use it in the field for capturing video/audio files from a quick cam or other USB camera. I've also hit the OS 10.2.8 bump on my desktop and plan to upgrade soon to 10.3, and was hoping to keep the 2 machines synched. I'm also still fairly dependent on Classic for my older Apps, though I'd be willing to dual boot on the laptop if need be. Is anyone running !0.3 daily with a Wallstreet? Will I need the extra ram (expensive low profile) ? Can I use Carbon Copy Cloner to duplicate my G4 desktop (dual 450 gigabit ethernet) without any problems (missing drivers/control panels)? I also need a new pram battery (expensive) and new main batteries (expensive) and when I recently upgraded to 10.2.8, I lost my USB connectivity to my external OWC Elite HD and also took a speed hit. (might this be the dead pram battery?) Is it worth the expense of upgrading further or should I bite the bullet and forget the whole idea of 10.3, synching, and video capture on this venerable old machine? (love torturing Windows users by telling them it's a 1998 model!) Thanks in advance, Frank -- -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Wallstreet questions
ever made for this machine? Second, can the lower RAM chip be replace, if so how is this done? Hi, yes, the lower RAM card can be replaced. You have to remove the processor board. Before you begin, remove the following: € AC adapter € Expansion bay modules € Keyboard € Heat sink € Hard drive 1 Position a nylon tool under the center of the right side of the board and lift up to release it. 2 Pull the microprocessor board to the right. Replacement Note: Align the tabs on the left side of the board with the slots on the top case stiffener, then press down firmly on the right side of the board to seat the connector. Replacement Caution: The microprocessor board can be partially inserted and the computer will still function. However, over time, heat will cause the microprocessor board to lose contact and can cause the system to have intermittent problems such as no booting. Therefore, check proper installation by pressing on the microprocessor board connector a second time to make sure the board is fully seated.

Loading 10.2 on Wallstreet II 512m
I can get to the point where it is loading the final stages of disc 1 and my screen goes buggy and does not allow me to continue, either the screen will wash out or will have funky color changes. I have tried to use xpostfacto and get even less far (barely goes into the splash install screen before having a screen issues). I am so frustruated at this point since I know other people have gotten this to work. I have zero problems using this laptop under OS9 and have over 2hrs of battery life and a wonderful colored screen. What gives, I need help in a big way and am open to any suggestions, or maybe even trade this for an iBook 500 or higher, just am really frustrated and wish I had never sold my G3 900 such a fool (but needed money at the time, always listen to your wife she told me not to) Shawn -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: wallstreet questions
Shawn, I have worked on a couple of WS, both I and II. I would suggest avoiding OS X.2 altogether. I had sleep and monitor issues on both machines that were not resolved until I upgraded to Panther installed using XPostFacto 3. IIRC, there were others on the list had similar issues. If you want OS X, go to Panther rather than Jaguar.

Re: wallstreet questions
I would second this advice. Those old 233MHz processors don't cut it. Get the second generation processors. I was informed by one on this list that second generation processors would work on the first generation machines, not vice versa. If you were to seek an upgrade path to G4dom, this would allow you that option later down the road.

Re: Wallstreet 13.3 screen
Not that I know of, but you could try googling it. I only remember back from when that model was new, as well as it saying in my Apple Service Source manuals. - something like Screen flickers intermittently or displays a series of lines: If the display is a 13.3 model and squeezing the left bezel causes it to stop, and if the model number is between something and something then the part should be replaced with some part number as a warranty repair.

Re: wallstreet questions
IMHO, I'd upgrade the processor in any Wallstreet before going after RAM, as long as you have 128 MB or more. CD-R and RW drives are, no offence, extraneous gadgets that are a little farther down the list. However, that's only my opinion, but I'm used to a Lombard 400 with 192 MB of RAM and I'm looking to swap my 128 MB card for a 256 after I get a new battery in it.

Re: Wallstreet hinge replacement by PBParts
I went for the $69 hinge replacement service (plus $27 shipping) from PB Parts in Scottsdale, Ariz. My Wallstreet G3 returned today, and it's like a new, usable 'puter. The screen won't flop forward or back anymore, which means it's a traveling companion again. Plus, the PBParts people fixed some tiny things for free! I doubted whether I should invest another 90-odd dollars in a 10-year-old G3 Powerbook, but now I am quite glad that I did. My highest recommendation for PBParts to other users plagued by the stupid Wallstreet hinge problem. A note of caution is merited here: I used PBParts to have my hinges replaced, too. Less than a year later, the repair failed. I had to pay for shipping to them, but they admitted it was something we haven't seen before and send it back quickly overnight at their expense. Further, another year later and the hinges are a little wobbly now: I can't keep the lid at less than a 90-degree angle or it'll slam shut (I'd prefer to keep it just a bit open, as I have a 17 monitor behind it which I use instead of the WS's screen). PBParts thinks it's the screen support (not the hinges itself), but has agreed to consider it a repair warranty issue if it needs further work. So far, it's stayed this way for 5 months with no worsening. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Wallstreet hinge repair
--- Andrew in Ann Arbor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 1 travel seems a bit much but it might work that way for a while yet. Again, I'll restate here becasue I think it's important... If your hinges are loose, DO NOT just continue to use them and see how long it will last. How long will it last until what?? Until it breaks completely? Then what happens? It gets more loose? More play opening and closing and the screen won't stay in the position you want? Those are the least of your worries. If that hinge breaks (and they do) and a sharp portion of the metal pierces a video cable running through the hinge or some other cable coming off the mother board it's gong to take out another component... it could short and take out many more components and that, I promise you, will be very costly. I had the hinges on my wallstreet replaced by pbparts for about $70 and they've been fine since then (3 years). That doesn't sound like a bad deal. I really want to think i was able to find the hinges on ebay for around $50 and do the repair myself. (Though I've been repairing many models of laptops for years and am very comfortable with doing so.) If your not comfortable... that sounds like a good deal. Likewise, if your going to find them on ebay... make sure you knwo if it's the left or right hinge and make sure your getting the hinge for the proper size display. Sionnach __ Do You Yahoo!?

Wallstreet hinge repair
Thanks to all to answered my previous post regarding loose hinges. I contact PB parts who make/install the steel replacement hinges that everyone seems to be recommending. This is their response. We don't recommend doing the screen support repair until the hinges have actually failed. The main reason we recommend waiting is that the play you have described is quite typical, and has little to do with the actual failure. When screen supports fail, it is usually sudden, and complete. Your existing hinges may last several more years. Another thing to consider is that we will eliminate most of the play when we do the rebuild, but it normally returns in a few months. There is nothing that can be done to permanently eliminate the play. PBParts Got to like a business that doesn't pressure sell. Anyway, I will leave the hinges for now.

Re: Got a new Wallstreet and have some questions
Garry, The looseness you feel on the LCD display is in fact a bad hinge. If you are lucky, it may just be starting to loosen. If this is the case, simply taking the machine apart and tightening the hinge will fix the problem. If you are unlucky like I was the damage will already be done and the hinge will be physically broken... Of course, at that point, there is little you can do but replace the hinge. The hinges, if I remember correctly, span the height of teh display, so you need to get not only the right hinge for your display size, but also know if it's right or left... they are different. I believe I finally scored a hinge for mine from ebay - good guy, but I can't remember his name it's been so long. I think I just went ahead and replaced both hinges in lieu of anyhting happening to the other side as long as I had it open. If I recall... they weren't easy to find and weren't cheap either. I think I paid somewhere around $50-$80 for both hinges... I do recommend replacing the hinge and not just letting it stay loose because you want to save the . A loose hinge can easily pinch and short a display cable and cause you much more of a problem than you currently have. Sionnach __ Yahoo! DSL – Something to write home about.

Re: Wallstreet hinge repair
Greetings. I finally managed to score a good deal on a 233/cache, 14.1 Wallstreet off E-bay. It arrived a couple of days ago in better condition than the E-bay seller advertised. Just goes to show that not everyone is a crook I suppose. Anyway, I have some questions. The display hinges seem kind of 'loose' in that the display has about an inch of free play when open. Is this a sign of the hinges getting ready to fail? If so, where is the best place to get them replaced/repaired? 1 travel seems a bit much but it might work that way for a while yet. Or it might not. My father in law's wallstreet has one broken hinge and it's quite inconvenient. I had the hinges on my wallstreet replaced by pbparts for about $70 and they've been fine since then (3 years). Check here for details: http://www.pbparts.com/shop? keywords=hinge+repairsearch_request_button=+Search+ You can also buy new OEM hinges and replace them yourself but I think it might actually cost more than having PBparts install aftermarket hinges.

Re: what linux and what kernel for my wallstreet?

Re: Wallstreet and Duo
Yes, I have run Duos, Wallstreets, and Lombards from the Duo power adapter. The only problem I have found is the Duo P/S does not have as high a current output, so it may not charge your battery while the computer is awake. It will take longer to charge but other than that there is no problem. Mike --- TVirkkala [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a Wallstreet I. I used to have a bunch of Duos, before they were stolen.

Re: Wallstreet and Duo
Hi Yes the duo adapter will power the wallstreet but i may not charge the battery at the same time. you might need to sleep the wallstreet to charge the battery. Completely correct. The same connector is used on 1400, 3400, Wallstreets, Lombards, Pismos, Clamshells. It's the same connector but a lower wattage adapter. Personally I'd advise getting the correct adapter - but the DUO adapter will tide you over. -- Best wishes Malcolm Cornelius - The Powerbook Fanatic http://www.pbfanatic.co.uk -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: going wireless with my wallstreet
http://static.flickr.com/26/56141137_148c7bdf00.jpg?v=0 i was wondering if i could go wireless with my wallstreet, it can't be that slow can it? i only want to use it for email. and where can i get these parts online? i live in a college town with no apple or apple related stores for miles. Tessa, Most of the few responses to your inquiry that I've seen so far (I'm in digest mode) are OK as far as they go, but it seems you need much more complete info. It sounds like you're pretty much a newbie to wi-fi with Apple PowerBooks, so I'll try to summarize my experience as completely as possible. First, OS 9.2.1 is a great match for the Wallstreet and will not be as slow as you might fear. If you have a Rev 1 Mainstreet model with no cache it will be a bit pokey but definitely still usable. Look at the info plate on the bottom of your WS; if there's no system configuration summary then you have the cacheless Mainstreet. My Rev 2 PDQ reads: 14.1TFT/233MHz-512K/32MB/2gb HD/4MB video/CD/Modem. For future reference, if you have a Mainstreet don't even *THINK* about installing OS X. Second, the 32 MB of RAM you have now is *NOT* enough; find at least a 128 MB module to add ASAP (there are two RAM slots and one of yours is empty). If you can afford $40-50 get a 256 MB SO-DIMM -- your Wallstreet will love you for it. Third, 802.11b is all the wi-fi you'll ever need; don't be suckered into buying one of the newer 802.11g because you think newer must be better. There are a lot of Orinoco 802.11b cards floating around, and the best place to find cheap Orinoco wi-fi cards is ebay, plain and simple. You'd have to hunt high and low at online retailers to find a real deal; they're falling off the trees on ebay. Get a Silver or Gold, and don't pay over $30 (total including shipping) for one; I paid $24 shipped for a new-stock Gold about a year ago. (There are maybe a dozen or more brands of 802.11b wi-fi cards that are actually Orinocos; mine was an Enterasys RoamAbout, and even Dell sells a couple.) There are no new software drivers for OS X, but you shouldn't need to worry about that. Orinoco v7.2 is the latest OS 9 driver; you can Google for a free download. Fourth, join the LEM Swaplist ASAP! Lots of helpful Mac folks there, buying and selling used Mac stuff. Good luck, and happy Mac-ing!

Re: going wireless with my wallstreet
tessa, all... I have been going online wirelessly with my 64 MB250 Mhz Kanga G3 now for about a month. It works like a charm, though I want to finish increasing the resident RAM and getting a bigger hard drive. Took finding the virtual memory sweetspot to keep it from bombing periodically and trying out a number of browsers...the most trouble free browser I found was Internet Explorer 5 for Mac OS 9 with double the virtual minimum memory selected. But the essential part was following this fantastic no brainer tutorial (thanks to penmachine!!!): http://www.penmachine.com/techie/airport1400.html As the article showed I could use an inexpensive Dell Truemobile 1150 80211.b WiFi card and I think it took a one click install to to a link in the article get online! I bid on eBay for several days and having little money I won on auction by last minute bid sniping an 1150 for $9 -- does look humorous seeing a Dell logo sticking out of a multiclored Apple logo'd G3 laptop, but the desktop shows a 3rd party Orinoco gold card and there's 4 or 5 green signal strength bars at the bottom of the screen. Wonderfull I enjoy using this so much, I am taking the G3 on a low budget dream trip out of country and will blog it online wirelessly, so no reason to be satisfied with just email capability. Besides if your Dad can surf with a 100 Mhz Winblows laptop, then don't quit until you can do that (and more) with a Wallstreet. For instance, once online I found an old version of iTunes (version 2.04) and also use Audion, for Internet radio and CD's/mp3's -- all free.

Want to trade half-recognized 256 MB SODIMMs (Wallstreet)
Got two sticks of 256 MB Apple SODIMMs for a good price, and my Wallstreet sees each as 128. I rolled the dice, and lost. Wondering if someone has these sticks that will be fully seen in mine for the ones which I assume will work in many other laptops, and some iMacs, if I'm not mistaken. I am in the SF Bay area; I'd certainly be willing to travel a bit to trade one stick or both, and kick in some monetary consideration. OWC seems to have the right ones for ~$27; I could KICK myself. Alternatively, I would sell and ship these if my dream transaction doesn't materialize. Thanks for reading. Robert G.

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...
