Re: Need HELP with a 3400c
I didn't write the first quote. Only replied to it. Why not go to Radio Shack or another supplier and get a spray can of electronic contact cleaner. And on every single contact pin and hole and card edge and slot spray the heck out of it scrub it with an old toothbrush and repeat this process at least twice more. Especially anything that stays in the machine when you swap parts out. And have you swapped parts from the working machine into the non working one? Check cables for damage and loose contacts and pins. If you have a continuity tester test every wire end to end. Good Luck Hi yes that is what I was saying you can take bits from either and put them in to work but when the second one is together it will not go. If there is more than 3 different parts from the bad Mac in my good 3400 that is dead also. I can not understand it. It does not make sense. And should not happen. --- ??? ANY 3 ? Which ones are in the mix? Never the same part in any one mix? You should be able to write down trial info. By changing one item at a time or 2 different ones you should be able to eliminate the bad part or combination of parts. Unless the whole machine was effected say by a lightning strike or ?

Be sure when you do that you update the hard disk driver by running hdsc setup or the new os will not work either. Also run disk tools to check the hard disk before you install the new os. Otherwise the new os will be on the hard disk but the computer will not see it to boot off of it. If it doesn't have a cd drive, you will have to copy a system folder by linking with another computer. Once you get a good os on it and run hdsc setup before, you should be ok.

Re: OS 7.0.1 and PB 145- need help w/disk image
Bill, What I have done to get a new OS on my PB170 was to boot with Gamba's RAMdisk booter, which boots the PowerBook into System 7.5, installs a RAMdisk, copies System 7.5 files to it, and then switches to the RAMdisk as the boot disk. The floppy is then ejected, and since the PB is running from RAMdisk, you can use the floppy drive to install an OS of your choice on the PB's hard drive. Contact me off-line if you need a copy of this great utility, because I don't think it's available any more from Gamba's web-site. Rob Hi Ric, thanks!

Is there some other command that will eject it after booting so I can then put in the first OS floppy? Thanks. bill -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

OS 7.0.1 and PB 145- need help w/disk image
Dear Bill, I'm not quite sure what is happening, but I'll try mentioning some points: I have tried simply dbl clicking on the first file- that creates a large disk image on my desktop, but no way will it fit onto a floppy. It seems you did everything right up to here, because Disk Copy has mounted the image and it appears on your desktop as a real disk. Did you make any changes to these mounted disks??? It is possible to add or delete files, just like with normal disks, that's why I'm asking... If in doubt, download the image file(s) again. Now you need a 1.4 MB floppy for each of the four disk image files. The floppies should have two holes, one for write-protecting and one to tell the Mac it's a high-density floppy. It's best to format the floppies first, so you know they're good. Then comes the trick: After a disk image has been mounted (with Disk Copy), insert a floppy, and drag the icon of the mounted disk (not the image file!) onto the floppy's icon. That starts the disk-copying process. Then you can drag both disks to the trash, the mounted image and the real floppy, and repeat the thing for the other image files. Good luck and let me know if it works out! Ge' -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: OS 7.0.1 and PB 145- need help w/disk image
I have downloaded the OS files and they were decompressed by Stuffit. I have Disk Copy 6.3.3 installed. I seem to be doing something wrong when trying to disk copy each part to a floppy disk. I have tried simply dbl clicking on the first file- that creates a large disk image on my desktop, but no way will it fit onto a floppy. Opening Disk Copy and asking it to mount a disk does the same. I have also tried simply copying each part as downloaded onto floppies, but my machine won't boot it. (For these testing purposes I am usiing a dl of 7.5.3 and a pb 180 assuming the process would be the same for my intended project. Can anyone refresh me on exactly to go about transferring these multi-part downloads onto floppies the first of which will boot and begin install of an OS. Thanks for your time.

Re: Need help for HD and Farallon Card
Whoa. Well. That sucks :( If you're handy with a soldering iron you might be able to fix it. Alternatively if you bought the identical drive from the LEM swaplist or ebay you could switch circuit boards from one drive to the other. This would be good if you could find the identical drive that had bad sectors. You could potentially get it for _cheap_ and swap it's board onto your drive. The key to this is that the drives have to be the same model number. Not close (it might work), but the same. As for the soldering iron solution. You could (i haven't tried this yet) get some metal the same diameter as the pin desolder and remove the existing broken pin, cut new piece of metal to a good workable length, insert it through the plastic housing thing and resolder it to the board. Then cut off any excess. That should work. Since I haven't tried it yet, I can't report on my success with doing it, but in theory, if you're careful, it should work just fine. -nils On Sun, Oct 26, 2003 at 12:20:52PM -0600 or thereabouts, macnifico wrote: Hi, Listers!

Jim, the point Cameron made is that both drivers loaded prevents either or both cards from working. The solution is to disable the original Farallon extension but leave the hacked extension in the extensions folder. Rebooting should then see the 3com card functional. If not, try swapping cords, as the two are interchangable IIRC. I think this does mean both cards cannot be active at once, though I don't know if that is at what you were aiming.

(I do have a Farallon in there working now) At least for the hacked driver I (sort of) support, since it's based on the Farallon driver, I have not had good results getting the two to work together. I'm surprised they load together at all. That being said, if the card appears on your desktop, and you didn't get a message saying there's no driver for it, it's working. Double click on the card icon and configure it. I have a 3C589C in my 1400 and it works flawlessly. You can try this driver if the one you're using is different (look in Extensions Manager; if it's the one I'm maintaining, it will have my name in the Extensions text and a blue-and-white PCMCIA card icon). http://www.floodgap.com/retrotech/mac/enet3c589/ Please tell me if you try this, so I can get more datapoints (whether it ends up working or not). -- - personal page: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Point Loma Nazarene University * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TODAY'S DUMB TRUE HEADLINE: Cold Wave Linked To Temperatures --- -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Need help with dead 520c
Scott and Paul, I have tried resetting the power manager with no luck. :-( Any other ideas? Thanks, Andre Have you reset the power manager? Ctl/opt/Apple/restart with power/batt off for half hr. No way for CompUSA, or any other commercial repair. You can do it yourself, as the 5XX's are so modular that there's no reason for paying techies. Get the service manual, and swap back the 040 to narrow down the problem. Might be the PPC daughtercard. If it still doesn't work, then you know that the most expensive part isn't the problem.

Need help with dead 520c
My trusty old 520c, which has been upgraded with a Newer PowerPC upgrade card and a 540c screen, has suddenly decided to play dead. It does nothing. The batteries seem to be charged. The power supply seems to be providing power. I pulled the hard drive and it worked fine in an external case (I retrieved my data). But when I hit the power button it just sits there. When I had the case open I made sure that everything seemed to be seated properly on the boards. Any suggestions? I noticed that the local (45 miles away) CompUSA store advertises that they can repair any type of computer. Would this be a safe alternative? Any recommendation for other repair options?

Re: Need help with dead 520c
First thing to try is to remove all power sources and let it sit awhile. Failing that, reset the power manager with all power removed. As for CompUSA, yes, they might could fix it. But, you could probably get a whole new 520c what they'd want to charge. Probably even a 33mhz upgrade to go alone with it.

Hi all A couple things I'm having trouble with. I have a PB Wallstreet 266MHz 192mb ram OS 9.2. I have it set up with a external monitor (KDS 15) And ext. keyboard and mouse. Ok when I close the screen on the powerbook the monitor goes black I would like to leave it closed to keep the dust out since I'm using the ext, monitor. Can I do this it seems it should and how? Also when I start playing a game it starts out ok but then the monitor loses video. What gives with this? This set up is for my kid's and I want them to use it as a desktop.

I have a PB 180c that won't keep the right time or date. When I change it in the Date and Time CP it changes to something else right before my eyes. Never seen this before. Would a dead PRAM battery cause this behavior? I have done the usual, reset the PRAM etc. I mean it changes time and date when I click outside the time box in the DT control panel.

Yes, you need the system extensions that activate the card at startup. Visit the manufacturers web site.

Re: Need help with DSL/Airport/Router
I use a Lynksys Etherfast Cable/DSL 8-port router with a cable modem. There was a booklet that came in the box with it that showed you how to configure it. You fire up your browser then type in the address of the router. It is in that booklet. For my cable company I had to tell them the MAC address of the router (instead of the MAC address of my computer) for them to see me, because the router is between the cable modem and my computer. But that might not apply for DSL Donna Pointer-- iMac, ergo iAm David: I don't know offhand about the Linksys router, but most of those work with a simple web browser interface--you configure everything by a computer hooked directly to the router/hub. You might got to the Linksys web page or do a search on http://www.google.com/mac.html for Mac and the Linksys model number. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

if it's a linksys then leave the username blank and type admin as the password (or maybe the other way around, i'm not sure now.) if you changed it from the default (above) you can reset it on the router itself by pressing in the reset button with a paperclip or toothpick or whatever. hope. - Original Message - From: Donna Hood Pointer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PowerBooks [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 3:27 PM Subject: Re: [OT] Re: Need help with DSL/Airport/Router Out of curiosity, I typed in http://192.168.1.1 on my computer and I get a screen in Internet Explorer that asks for user name and password. i vaguely recall my manual for the router giving a standard user name and password to use when I first set it up.
