  I have one of their large surge protectors.  My wife got it at Big Lots for
like $10 and it will take about 2100 joules and has a ton of wide and narrow
space outlets.  I guess my surge insurance that came with it is no good now.

You may actually be in luck there, since XLR8 was acquired by Tripp 
Lite.  Tripp Lite's mainstay product line is power protection.  It 
may be a big enough point of pride for them, that they'll cover your 
surge protector.

  Interex was a manufacturer of Mac to VGA monitor
  adapters, and I think some other items too.
 
  Their website, www.interex.com , has been gone for
  quite a while.
 
  Did some other company (who we can bug for at least
  providing pre-existing settings and/or software for
  Interex stuff) buy out Interex or did the company
  just evaporate with their assets being sold to the
  four winds, never to be tracked down?
 
 They made a good variety of stuff... I at one point had an Interex ADB
 keyboard and an Interex USB hub...

Interex was the parent company for XLR8.  They closed up shop about two
years ago, due to poor fiscal management.  IIRC, all their assets were
sold to Tripp Lite, but only XLR8 was kept intact as a subsidiary. 
According to XLR8's website, they're located in Norcross, GA.  How close
is that to you, Amber...?
If you have any Interex products that may still be under warranty, it
may be a good idea to check with Tripp Lite.

Nice little drives.  Recently picked one up (with eight cartridges) in a
gimme a few bucks for this pile of stuff, please deal.  AFAIK, the
media are more reliable than Zips, and I like it so much I traded away
my Zip 100.  Gonna keep my eyes peeled for sources of affordable disks;
if I find anything, I'll post to the list if you like.

So it will work on my 3000/160?
 
  Looks like they have a universal driver for all Syquest drives, dated 7/98,
  so I would say chances are good that it still works with maybe 8.6 if not
  newer Mac OS's.

I'm using SyQuest Utilities 4.01 with 8.6 and 9.1, with no probs so far.
 I think SilverLining Lite 2.2 is good to go, too.  Just stick with the
same version for all SyQuest disks and you should be fine.

 You might dig around eBay for one of the external

 battery but did a full discharge before charging.
 If the battery is salvagable, a few runs on such

 could get around an hour of runtime.

If the power manager circuitry is intact, and the battery isn't already
on its last legs, resetting the power manager could fix your problem. 
There's a little (8K) utility called ResetPwrMgr (catchy, huh?) that
might do the trick.  It's an easy email attachment for anyone who's interested.

 Yep. There are cleaning sets consisting of a cleaning floppy and a

  I had one of my networked LC 575's crash while surfing today. An error
  message suggesting I increase the RAM allotted to the NetNav 2.02 popped
  up. I looked in :About this Macintosh and found I had only about 4 MB
  of RAM NOT used by the system files. That is 4 MB out of 20 MB of RAM I
  have installed on this 575.
 
 Something like this happened on an LCIII I was working on a few weeks ago
 for a customer. It has 36MB RAM and system 7.1, and Netscape Gold 3.01. I
 kept getting out of memory errors when trying to start up Netscape. Same
 when I tried to start The Print Shop. I knew that couldn't be right. I went
 to 'About This Macintosh' and it said the system software was using 32MB!!!
 My jaw dropped. When I came to, I rebooted, and immediately checked ATM
 again. Back to normal - about 2MB devoted to the system. This seemed to be
 completely random...???

I've noticed similar memory management oddities on a couple of my Macs
using 7.1I've gotten in the habit of installing RAM Doubler 2 and
setting it to the lowest possible setting without turning it off - no
more RAM problems.
Before that, I occasionally had similar RAM problems until I remembered
to check that 32-bit addressing was turned on - IIRC, a previous poster
mentioned having this turned of; though why anyone would do so is beyond me.

DatStar Turbo 601 o/c?

2001-09-12 Thread Gene Osburn

I'm getting a IIci with Turbo 601 installed.  Standard speed setting is
66 MHz, but I can rarely leave well enough when I hear of
acceleration/overclocking options.  This page from Mark Schrier's Clock
Chipping site - http://homepage.mac.com/~schrier/dt601.html - shows how
to chip the card to run at 90 MHz - sounds mighty good to me...!

I have no electronics soldering experience, and I'm reluctant to
undertake this kind of project until I've had quite a bit of practice. 
Is anyone willing to negotiate a swap in exchange for doing the o/c work
for me?  Drop me a line, let me know what kind of stuff you're looking
for - maybe we can work something out.

Does anyone know where I can find a MicroMac speedy? MicroMac wants $50
for one, but that's absurd! I can get an ACCELERATOR that will yield
better beformance for that price. I reason I want one is that I want to
try overclocking the 040 on my Turbo 040 card from 40mhz to 48mhz or
higher. Does anyone know if this works? I read attempts to ground pin
one and feed in a new signal failed in overclocking the Turbo
i040-33mhz board, but this didn't use a Speedy.

I had to lurk on ebay for quite a while to find one.  Luckily, I wound
up with the complete package in original box.  The Speedy attaches to
the CPU oscillator on the mobo, so I don't see how you could use it to
accelerate the 040 card itself...?

BTW, it easily ran my IIsi at 30 MHz+ (31.5 or 32.5 top speed, can't
remember which), but I didn't try using the serial ports.  Does anyone
here have any direct experience (no hearsay, please) successfully using
serial ports on accelerated IIsi...?

 a one slot IIci adaptor and a shortie straight

 plug an 030 PowerCache directly into the IIsi.
 So I'll say it again. If you've plugged ANY IIci

Re: Photoshop 2.5 to 2.5.1

2001-08-17 Thread Gene Osburn

 Would someone please tell me the difference between PS 2.5 and 2.5.1? I
 want to use 2.5 in some vintage Macs but don't know what the .1 update
 enabled and whether that would even have a bearing on what I want to do.
 I don't have the updater and haven't found any decent info on it.

Bob,
Don't have a specific answer for you on that.  But it seems to me
thatmost .1 updates tend to address stability issues, rather than any
significant feature enhancements.  I routinely apply .1 updates to any
software I have installed, SOP.  I have the updater, 1.1 MB file on
diskette - I can make a copy and send it to you for the cost of postage
(If you wanna add an extra $ or two, cool).

 How about e-mailing to pickle or someone so that it
 will be available to lots of people? :) Adobe
 has nothing for versions of PhotoShop prior to 4.0. :P

I'm in digest mode.  I'm sure pickle has already noted the links so
kindly provided by Bill Jright, P?

Re: What's wrong with the 6214?

2001-08-16 Thread Gene Osburn

 What's wrong it?  I've just read the third
  message saying to throw it out.

 Can't get on the net unless you grease and beat it.
 Doesn't do more than 256 colors, 64MB limit, and it's
 slooow if it's doing anything but going out a
 window.

Hell, it can't even go out the window fast enough
