Check the monitor control panel, click *options* ... I believe the

Don't know what could be done about that, short of a video card w/

Also checked the game box for RAM requirements ... says 48 MB min. ,

May vary w/ different models ??
By the time those alien pods are about to open, it's taking a lot

  and to check whether my computer does, in fact match requirements.

  Hi Brian

  I've only used the game on my G3 upgraded 9600 and it was pretty 
slow on that.
  Looking at the system requirements, it looks like it should run 
on your machine.

Thanks for the reply, so far no one else has offered help.  I have to admit,
I'm a bit stumped by this.

To Any Small Dog sales folk: PB 190 SCSI cable

Greetings:

	Well, I tried the e-mail route, so I'll try here:
	Small Dog people; I'm looking for a HDI-30 SCSI cable to 
hitch my PB 190 with my 6320 for file sharing. I want to do business 
supporting good Mac guys but being a 911 job victim I have to haggle 
prices here; makes no sense buying a $50.00 cable when 5300s are 
going that rate on eBay!

If you wish to do SCSI disk mode file sharing, just getting a HDI-30 cable (I've 
never seen one) will NOT work; you have to use the hardware adapter to make the SCSI 
disk mode magic work, there's a different pinout.
In that case, the thing to do is to get a $10 powerbook SCSI adapter (may or may not 
support SCSI disk mode, be sure you get the right one)
and use a regular cable.

The SCSI disk mode adapters are usually available on ebay, or try the swap list.  the 
ones for disk mode, can switch back and forth from the SCSI disk mode to regular 
adapter mode.

If you really can't find one for sale, email me off-list, I might have a spare one 
kicking around.

For hooking up a CD-ROM or whatever, get a $3 powerbook scsi adapter (they used to be 
$9) from www.datamemorysystems.com in the clearance section.
Then buy a DB-25-to-whatever-your-external-drive-needs cable for $7 to $14 from your 
local computer store.
 
HTH.

I'll also suggest that since you are using two venerable classic Macs that each 
possess a serial port, that you just skip the risk of frying your SCSI ports and use 
localtalk (printer cable) filesharing.
I've had two people bring me old powerbooks that they killed the SCSI this way, 
adapter wiggled around while hooked up or something.

You can do just about anything you want over localtalk, including Norton disk 
scans/repairs (if the 190 HD boots); it just takes a little while. :)
And it's cheap (free if you already have a printer cable).

Re: Virtual PC on a 1400

2004-02-12 Thread Jim Lucas
I could not get VPC 4 to run on my 60 meg powerbook 1400; but 3.03a
works fine, albeit limited to Win95.  If you have 3.0 you will want the
incremental updates; they can be a little hard to find (at least they
were when Connectix still owned it), holler if you want help.
I have VPC 3.0.3, Windoze 98.

I'm guessing that you are looking for tax software too ? given the time
of year.  VPC3 has issues with printing to MacOS printers, IIRC, but
you might be able to put on a Windows .pdf builder and print to that on
the Windows side.
Actually, I have 4 pieces of software that needs Windows, for which 
no Mac version is available. I use a CPA, so, No, on the tax 
software. I have been using VPC 1, but the graphics always look 
kludgy, almost psychedelic. sometimes, pictures are totally 
unrecognizable, massess of seemingly random color.

Couple of things - which version are you trying to use? And how much
physical RAM do you have on the 1400?
RAM is maxed out, 60 Megs. Sonnet, G3 500 MHZ accelerator. I use a 
256K Flash Card PCMCIA card for virtual memory.

Kanga start up problem

2004-02-12 Thread Dan Scanlan
Hi,

I'm running 9.1 on a Kanga. It can always be booted, but not 
necessarily from the keyboard. If it goes to sleep on it's own (via 
the control panel settings) it comes to life when I hit any key. But 
if I put it to sleep with the Special/Sleep menu in the Finder, it 
often won't wake up and I have to use the reset button on the back, 
usually twice.

Anybody have this problem before and solved it?

Also, lately, Opcode's OMS has been bombing with Type 2 and 3 errors. 
It has worked in this configuration before, but now it bombs every 
time. I downloaded a fesh copy and installed it, but to no avail. 
Again, anyone got an idea what may be going on?

Thanks,

Dan Scanlan

Unless someone has written a Location Manager module to do it you 
can't directly.  But you can have Location Manager open a file and 
this could be an AppleScript file that changes the Appearance Manager.

Re: 1400 RAM Question

2004-02-12 Thread cdflood
I'm restarting an old thread started by Jonathan Metts, which I read in the 
December archives.

I too have been having a serious problem with system freezes and random 
program crashes with the Sonnet cache enabler loaded.  As with Metts' 
machine, mine starts up fine and even works okay for a little while if I 
haven't used in in a couple days...but then, right when I get rolling, 
something crashes or the whole system freezes and I have to reboot.

Without the cache enabled, the 1400 is surprisingly stable.  I recently 
installed 9.2.2, which seems to have increased stability, but without that 
L2 cache, everything is just too slow.

I have tried all versions of the Sonnet cache enable 1.x through 2.x.  I 
tried PowerLogix and NuPowr controllers, but I couldn't boot with either.  
I'm using good RAM...Is this merely a failure of the L2 cache?  Has anyone 
had this problem and recovered from it?

I've been struggling with this for months now, and I'm on the verge of 
giving up and getting a Lombard or something, which is a shame because this 
1400 could be truly an acceptable and low-cost machine.

Re: 1400 RAM Question

2004-02-12 Thread Cameron Kaiser
 Without the cache enabled, the 1400 is surprisingly stable.  I recently 
 installed 9.2.2, which seems to have increased stability, but without that 
 L2 cache, everything is just too slow.

Have you considered the possibility the cache may be faulty on that G3 card?

Hello,
wallstreet powerbook, System 9.2.2.
would like to use my PCMCIA Slot for USB and Wireless networking.
Any suggestions, pointers would be highly appreciated.


I have an IOGear USB card and Proxim Skyline wireless card on my 
Wallstreet.  The Skyline card has a thin antenna so it fits under 
the USB card.  I can get you a URL for a cheap source in the US if 
that helps.  I'm using OS X.2 on this PB but both work under OS 
9.2.2 also.
Clark, have you found a *stumbler* or sniffer that works w/ the 
Skyline card ??

I have a older Farallon Skyline card (802.11a compliant) in a PB 1400.
Software that came w/the card :
Farallon's Ping 1.0
Farallon's Wireless 1.0 control panel
CheckNet (?)


No I haven't.  When I've need that ability I borrow my daughter's 
laptop which has a Orinoco card in it running OS 9.1 and use a 
stumbler on that.

I do wish the folks who wrote the Source Forge driver for OS X will 
update it soon.  I'd like at least the ability to see what is out 
there.
