Re: Mac OS
this was an option if you already had toast a program for burning cds - you can save discimages in that one - and if you have toast in both pc and mac they can read each others images, and toast can mount disk copy images on the mac anyhow. kenta Not sure if Roxio EZ CD Creator for Windows can read Roxio Toast disc images unless you install a software like Macdrive 98 or newer that reads/writes/saves Mac files on a PC.

Re: PB 3400 failure
I am having an interesting time tracking down a PB3400 failure. After swapping parts around, it appears that my communication card (the modem/ethernet card internal to the 3400) will prevent booting if its in place. All I get is some clicking from the power board, and a very faint clicking from the LCD. Sometimes the green sleep light is on. Sometimes not. Take the communication board, out and the unit fires right up. This isnt the motherboard or power board (at least, alone) Odd. Has anyone else heard of this occurring ? Is this a GLOD for the 3400 ? Does anyone have one of those communications boards for sale ? thanks, Mad Dog Think power supply module - not enough juice is getting to the right places.

Re: OS 8 vs. 9 for 3400c
Hi Charlie, Unless you'll be using all of 9.1's USB, FireWire, and video enhancing features what do you mean by video enhancing features ? Does it makes a 3400 running faster ? I do video capture on another Mac and found that 9.1 allows whatever remaining free space there is on the drive to be used for huge (23 gig) video files. 8.6 and earlier places a 1.9 gig limit to what can be stored. 9.1 requires more memory to run so if your 3400 is a 180 it will boot at a slow pace. stay with 8.6. I installed 8.5.1 which I find slightly faster. So, what's the difference between 8.5 and 8.6 (in most posts about MacOS 8, 8.6 is said to be the better) ? Mehdi 8.5.1 is a shorter program and loads faster using up less memory. Since I haven't succeeded in making a USB cardbus card work on my 3400/200 I didn't see the point of retaining 8.6 with its enhanced USB capability.

Re: Flash 6 installer stupidity.
A L wrote: Has anyone else run into problems installing Flash 6 on their Macs? I have a PowerBook 3400 with OS 8.6 (the minimum required for F.6) and downloaded the Flash installer from Macromedia. The problem is that when it prompts me for what browser I use (IE, Netscape, Opera) it always claims that no browser could be found. This is despite the fact that I have both IE 4.01 and Netscape Communicator 4.7 installed. I've tried rebuilding the desktop folder, moving Flash's install program right into the browser's folder and even running it with the browser running in the background, but the stupid thing insists that the browser can't be found. The good folks at Macromedia didn't see fit to give the user the option of manually specifying the browser's location so I'm pretty much stuck. Flash 6 will see only the latest browsers like IE5, Navigator x.x, Opera 5. Upgrade to the latest and watch what happens. Charlie -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: PowerBook G3 power problems
I tested the voltage between the outer metal cylinder against the tip of the center post. (Since I don't know whether the power adapter is supposed to supply its 24 volts as DC or AC, I tried both!) Nothing! Does this mean the adapter is dead, or should the voltage drop be between two different parts of the center post, like with stereo plugs? The same thing happened a few months back to my 3500 Kanga's power supply - no output. So I cut off the cable behind the ferrite rod, stripped the braid (negative terminal) and measured the voltage - 24 volts DC active! I disassembled the power connector and found that the wire to the center post (positive terminal) had broken off behind the soldered joint. I got it working again after reattaching (resoldering) the cable, discarded the ferrite, and reassembled the connector with epoxy glue.

Anybody ever seen this? Verify the ram module under System Profiler to see if it is indeed 64 MB. If it turns out to be 32 MB it is either re-labeled or half the memory bank is not working.

Re: PB 1400 corrupts DOS floppies
Dennis Helsel wrote: I've tried transferring a Word file using a floppy disk to a PC running Windows 98.

When I try to open it, the PC says the disk is not formatted and can't open it. I've tried formatting it with the 1400 as a DOS disk. Same story.

Any ideas of what's wrong? Each time a floppy is inserted into a drive its directory is scanned and read by the read/write head. This process is accomplished within a certain time frame otherwise data will not be handled properly by the cpu.
