Asante 10Mbps Ethernet PC(PCMCIA) card and PowerBook 190cs
Hello to the list, A colleague inherited a PowerBook 190cs from another teacher. In the box of stuff with it, he found an Asante 10Mbps Ethernet PC Card for Powerbooks with PCMCIA slots. This was new and unopened. The box also said FriendlyNet PC Card. He immediately asked me if the card could be used to get the Powerbook onto the Internet from his classroom. I immediately said, Probably, but I'm not sure; I'll ask the list. It does have an RJ-45 cable with a 15-pin connector to connect to the 10BASE-T card. And a sealed floppy with software. Also instruction manual. Looks like a simple setup. Thought I would throw it out to the list before I started monkeying. Any warnings or thoughtful advice?

Re: Mac LC 580 need to Delete Printer Change
On 6-Aug-04, at 7:33 AM, Robert J. Stevens wrote: How do I go about de-installing Printer as well as other programs that don't work or that I don't want on My Macs. Hi, You didn't mention what version of the Mac operating system you are running, so when you say de-installing Printer I don't know whether you are talking about an icon on your Desktop that you want to get rid of (that references the older printer no longer available) or whether you are saying that you want to make the old printer no longer accessible in the Chooser. Pretty much all versions of the OS that you could be using have the Chooser feature but only some create desktop printer icons. I think the simplest answer is to say that you first need to install whatever driver software is needed for the printer you DO wish to use. That software is generally available from the web site of the printer manufacturer, if you do not already have it on disk or CD. Once you have the new printer software drivers installed, you should be able to choose that printer in the Chooser and then print fine. If your OS is one which wants to place a desktop printer icon on the Desktop of your Mac, you will now find that you can Trash the icon pointing to the old printer without the Mac saying that it is just going to replace it again. If you OS does NOT support desktop printer icons and you just want to make the old printer no longer show up in the Chooser, you can generally do that by looking for the printer driver in the Extensions folder inside your System Folder and removing that driver from that folder. Restart the Mac and you should no longer see that printer available in the Chooser. You could elect to Trash the original extension but just moving it to some other location will allow you to put it back if you ever need it in future. Another way to accomplish the same thing is to use the Extensions Manager Control Panel, again assuming that the OS version you are using includes Extensions Manager, to turn off that old printer driver. When it comes to de-installing applications, that can get a little more complicated. Some applications come with deinstallers. Some can be done away with just by deleting (move to Trash and then Empty Trash) the basic application file itself, but other application installers will put more files than just the application itself on your Mac. If you have a lot of applications like that, you may be better off to wipe the hard drive clean and start all over again. Good luck!!

Re: HDs on MacIIsi
On 4-Mar-04, at 11:24 AM, Haroldo Mauro Jr. wrote: Hi, I need help with the following: I started the computer from a floppy. It didn't see the internal HD. I tried several times. It acknowledged the presence of another large volume connected by presenting me a message that said I needed a 68040 or PowerPC processor in order to mount a volume larger than 4G, even though the HD's capacity is 2G only. Any ideas? Thank You hmauro Hi: I am wondering whether the 520 Meg hard drive which you removed from the external case and put into the IIsi is now no longer properly terminated. It's possible that its SCSI termination was being controlled by the circuitry in the external case. It is not always easy to just look at a hard drive and see the SCSI terminators, as they take different forms. One thing you could try, though, would be to remove the 2 Gig external, attach a short SCSI cable to the SCSI port on the back of the Mac, and then insert a SCSI terminator block (there may be a spare one already attached to the back of one of your two external hard drives) to that cable. If this results in the internal hard drive now being mountable, it would suggest to me that the internal hard drive does not have proper internal SCSI termination. With regard to 2 Gig hard drive, my thought is it should certainly work. In fact, for a time I was quite taken with upgrading IIsi units to their maximum capacity and I found a brand of 2 Gig hard drive that I really liked for this application. It was really thin, and slipped in nicely. However, I think I may have found that these hard drives, when put into a Macintosh environment, could not be formatted or partitioned using Apple software utlities like Drive Setup or Disk First Aid and, instead, I had to use a third party utility like SilverLining to set them up. Another thought is whether you might need a specific version of the Apple OS in order to read a 2 Gig hard drive. I am a bit foggy in that regard...maybe others can help out. Keep in mind that, at the same time as I was installing these hard drives, I would have been maxxing out the RAM. Not sure that should have any bearing, though. Good luck!!

Where are these messages stored? Good question. Not sure I can help with that. FYI, my practice has been to install OS 7.5.5 on just about all the Macs which I refurbish for donation, because (I hope I am correct on this!) that was the last or most recent operating system which was freely distributable, i.e. legal to copy onto any number of Macs. At one point, Apple made both a CD and a pile of diskettes version of this package available for purchase from them. The diskette package has a Disk Tools disk and that's the way I would get an older Mac with an empty hard drive to boot up. So you might hunt around for an OS 7.5.3 or 7.5.5 Disk Tools disk to try booting from, just in case that OS reacts any differently to a 2 Gig hard drive than does the 6.0.7 OS you are currently using. If you would like me to make you a 7.5.5 Disk Tools diskette and mail it to you, send me your mailing address by private email.

On 4-Mar-04, at 11:24 AM, Haroldo Mauro Jr. wrote: I connected them to a PowerMac 6100 and formated both in Mac OS Standard format. Having read a few more of the replies to your original message, I tend to agree with Jeff Garrison that you really ought to try to initialize these drives in the Macintosh in which you intend to use them, the IIsi. That would mean you would need to be able to boot the IIsi either with a startup diskette like a Disk Tools which has the software to allow you to format the drive, or a CD-ROM drive (sounds from Jeff's message as if he is talking about removing the INTERNAL CD-ROM from your PPC 6100 and transferring it temporarily to your IIsi, but this could also be accomplished with an external CD-ROM drive as long as it has Apple ROM's in it.) if you have a bootable CD with the appropriate software, OR from some other External hard drive that has appropriate startup and formatting software. Furthermore, in my experience with installing third party hard drives inside older Macintoshes, it is often the case that they are not compatible with Apple's drive setup or initialization software and I have had to use a third party utility like SilverLining in order to initialize the drive. I still get the impression that at least one of these two drives is not properly SCSI terminated. In my experience, this problem can be masked by putting a terminator directly onto the external SCSI port, or if you are running an external SCSI device off that port which IS properly terminated the internal becomes mountable until such time as you remove that external SCSI device for some reason.

CD info into an LCII
Hi, Y'all, I need to put a program on a little lab of LCII's. The program is on a CD. The LCII's have LaCie 1.2 gig SCSI HDs so there is enough room. I need to put this program on 16 of them. Can someone suggest an efficient, relatively quick solution? Another question: When some of these LC's start up, I get a high-pitched whine that rises in pitch and volume. Then it begins to drop in pitch and volume, fading away to nothing, only to go through the same cycle again in a few seconds. I was working on one of them with the top off Friday trying to discern the location of the whine. Finally reached over and disconnected the speaker. Whine stopped. Was the whine in the hard drive being passed along and through the speaker, or was it totally speaker generated to begin with? TIA, Jim -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Hard drive in 950 server for LCII LAN
Hi, Y'all, I would like a bigger hard drive in the 950 server in our old school lab. It serves a 16 unit LCII LAN.Am I restricted to only Apple SCSI drives? Also, can I put in a SCSI CD-ROM drive?

Logitech Scanman
Not sure whether this is proper for this list but I'm hoping to find info on this device which I acquired from a box of stuff that was going to the trash: I have what looks like a SCSI I/F box with model # H7M-1 listed along with a permanent 25 pin SCSI cable and 25 pin termination connector. The hand scanner that connects to it has an 8 pin minidin that connects to the connector at the front of the box. Looking at the rest of the I/F box, I see power input connector on the back that reads 12V AC and from the date on the box this hardware was built c.1988 (this is why I'm posting here). I've tried to find a driver (off and on for 2 days) for this outfit and see all kinds of PC drivers, but no Mac driver. I've no idea about the power device needed unless it's something like the power adapters such as zip drive or the many 115v to 6, 9 or 12v DC versions one sees all over the place. Due to the 12v AC label, I've never run across an AC to AC version of these type adapters. Anyway, can someone enlighten or direct me to sources of info/hdwr/sftwr for this scanner device? mudbro -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Multiple dard drives in a IIsi
Have you tried going to the drive mfg's site to see if you can find the models you have. Most drive sites (i.e., Seagate, Maxtor, etc.) have great info on drives, especially pinning. mudbro Ian Johnson says: I've tried using dual hard drives on my Mac IIsi (Apple 40 MB and 80 MB). I switched the 2 port SCSI ribbon cable with a 3 port cable and used a power splitter to provide 2 power ports for HDs. When I boot the IIsi with both drives, however, it gives me the Startup Disk Not Found flashing question mark. The cables and splitter are fine, they work with only on HD installed. Maybe the problem is both HDs set to SCSI ID 0, but I don't see ID jumpers anywhere on the drives. Is there some kind of built-in limitation on the IIsi preventing dual HDs (like when it was switched to 20MHz to prevent cutting into IIci sales?) -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Help or advice for LW IIg
Hello, y'all, I have a colleague who runs a CAD program at our school where I work part-time. Some of the LaserWriter parts I have purchased on e-Bay went into his LW IINT to make it an LW IIg. Now he is grousing because although the printer prints fine on regular 3-5 page jobs, it begins to print messy, smeared copies and finally jams up whenever he asks it to print 15 or more copies of a single page document or drawing. What he is doing is making multiple copies of documents he wants to hand out to his class as quizzes or class assignments. He doesn't want to walk up to the teachers' workroom to use the big copier. I have advised him to ask for a small copier of some sort for his needs. On the other hand, is there anything I can do to correct the problem? Is this a warning of a bigger problem to come? Can I clean something? ?? Jim -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: IIfx vs 386DX/40
Gregg: This has to be off topic, so I'll probably here about it, however, you're about rite.

The QuickColor board works (not surprisingly) with the QuickColor control panel -- probably earlier releases, although maybe later versions might work -- the same-named control panel was used with the Radius PrecisionColor, PrecisionColor Pro, Thunder IV series. I have a few versions, if you want them, email me offlist. Most of the Radius DirectColor boards only supported the Radius 2-page monitors, which have a funny (i.e. nonstandard) resolution, I think 1152 x 882, except for the DirectColor GX, which supported the Apple 13 RGB, NTSC/PAL. The QuickColor card had no external connectors, it accelerated the DirectColor card thru the Nubus -- bus mastering, I suppose. I don't know if it will master other cards that will play the submissive role, like the Apple 8*24.

IIRC, the patent expires in (literally) a couple months. Read all about it here: http://asia.cnet.com/newstech/applications/0,39001094,39067756,00.htm An aside: The ISO has threatened to 'delist' the jpeg standard if the patent is upheld.

There are other limitations. I think what will become the rule of thumb about software use is the current lawsuit involving JPEGs. I haven't followed this as closely as I would have liked but the gist is that the person(s) who developed the JPEG never enforced their copyright and now that the copyright is lapsing, they want everybody to pay or stop using it.

IBM WDS-3200 Level One Hard Drive Failure
Just got in an IBM WS-3200 HDD (200 MB) I'd like to put in one of my low end LCIII's or compacts. Using an LC 575 running Os 8.1, I can get SCSI Probe, APS Installer, Silverlining and FWB to see it, but none of them will mount it because there's no volume to mount. None of them will let me initialize or low level format it either. Apple HDSC drive setup utility won't even see it, nor will Apple's Disk First Aid (it's mounted in an external case, set to ID 1 on Bus 0). On bootup, FWB (v. 2.0.1) says the drive has a Level One Failure, indicating it's not too serious. IBM's web site has no formatting utility for this drive. And I can't find anything that will let me tell this hard drive, which tests as having 0 (zero) capacity as if it's a CD-ROM drive, that it's a 200 MB IBM WDS-3200. An identical drive from the same source tested out just fine. FWB will not format because it could not get the media capacity. However, it can get some disk info because the HDD's name is Big Mac Daddy, so at least some data is still there. FWB won't let me update the driver because of an ESM internal error. FWB gives this partition information in this order: Title, Name, Type, Start Block, Size (KB): Line 1: Partition Map, Apple, Apple_Partition_Map, Start Block 1, 50 KB Line 2: Custom, FWB Driver Components, FWB Driver Components, Start Block 101, 512 KB Line 3: Free Space, Extra, Apple_Free, Start Block 1125, 2147483085 KB Help!

Re: Mac IIci Floppy Problem
Regarding the floppy drive problem: I'd still bet on a funky floppy drive, new or not. Your specified symptoms sound mechanical, not electricial/electronic. If you can, try the drive in another machine and see if the problem follows the drive. If it does, it's the drive. If it doesn't, then you may have mobo/cable problems. Regarding your earlier post on the 8*24GC card: G-world memory is incredibly hard to find and unbelievably expensive. After you spend the big bucks to purchase it you find that it doesn't do much because it requires apps that were written to take advantage of it and there were/are damned few of them. You would be better of (IMHO) purchasing a third party vid card such as a Supermac Spectrum III or such. You can frequently pick them up off ebay for pennies on the dollar.

I'll echo that recommendation. However, I was able to get around a password-locked 80 MB Quantum SCSI with a 1990 Apple ROM recently by hooking it up in an external HDD, which I then connected to the SCSI port on an SE/30. Ran LaCie 5.3.1 on it to see and mount it at ID 1. That let me copy the contents to another external drive without using a password. Then I used LaCie to format and initialize the drive before putting it in another machine. Once there, I reinitialized it as an Apple drive and got rid of the LaCie stuff. If you can get a 2.5-3.5 SCSI adapter, then I believe you can easily get at that little HDD to wipe it clean and start over.

Re: Trouble with a password-protected PB540c, can't boot NetworkDisk, hair falling out, shot nerves
I should have said LaCie Silverlining 5.3.1. It's an older version of LaCie's disk partitioning utility for Macs. See www.lacie.com for the current version, which comes on CD. Ask around your local Mac community; someone's sure to have a copy they'll let you borrow. The file's something like 242K, so it'll fit nicely on a floppy. -- Jim - Original Message - From: b e n w e l l s | headwerkx [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Vintage Macs [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 8:36 PM Subject: Re: Trouble with a password-protected PB540c, can't boot NetworkDisk, hair falling out, shot nerves Ran LaCie 5.3.1 on it to see and mount it at ID 1.

Re: Apple LaserWriter LS vs NTR
Hi, I'm the original poster and after reading the following: From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Goetz Hoffart) Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 19:11:18 +0200 Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a chance to replace an non-working Apple Personal LaserWriter NTR with a very good still working well, Personal LaserWriter LS on my classroom LAN of 16 LC580's. Can I network it just like the NTR? Pictures look the same. No, the Personal LaserWriter LS has no LocalTalk but only a Serial Port. And it has no Postscript but QuickDraw. It is a slow and not very appropriate printer for a classrom (no network, nearly no RAM, no PostScript). Regards G=F6tz --=20 I was wondering if I can upgrade the LS to NTR. I have a couple of NTR boards that may be OK even if the printers are not printing properly, and those boards would have the appropriate connections. What say you?

Apple MultiSyn 15 monitor help, again
Hello, I think I saw a thread on one of the lists about a problem with the Apple Multisync 15 monitor. Of course because I wasn't having a problem at the time, I paid no attention. Here it is: 1. Nearly two school years ago fellow teacher's classroom Mac monitor (15 MultiS) gets yellow-green problem. 2. I bought Griffin Tech VGA to Mac adapter and hooked an extra VGA monitor to his 7600 Mac. 3. No problem until three weeks ago, when after start-up, he got no video output. 4. I hooked up my working 15 MS monitor to his computer for a loan until other arrangements could be made. 5. No problem until late last week when after a freeze-up, he restarted and got no monitor picture. He has attempted to restart since then and still cannot get a monitor response. Any ideas. I haven't had time to try the monitor on mine at home. Jim -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Clearing out unused extra memory after closing IE 4.01 and/or OE 4.01
Folks, I notice that approximately 5MB or so of RAM does not clear out after I use IE 4.01 and/or OE 4.01. My Performa 550 has 36MB RAM, and should have about 28MB to 31MB RAM free, depending on how much MacOS 7.5.5 uses at a given time. 32 bit addressing is on, virtual memory and the RAM disk are off, and the disk cache is 1MB. How can I clear out the extra unused RAM every time I close IE4 and OE4? Any help is appreciated.

A little weird About this Mac...
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. I looked at a half dozen of the other 575's and 580's, and I had pared the system files for the OS 7.5.5 down to around 4 MB on each of the others. I looked fairly closely at the system files on the weird one and could find nothing big or unusual that I had forgotten to delete from this machine. I plan to take a detailed look next week.

Blinking ? on disk
Hello, y'all, Early season question for the list. I'm the person with the Mac lab of LCII's, 575's, and 580's. When the teacher whose room houses the lab went in a few days prior to the opening of school, she and a student turned a few (6-8) of the Macs on. All came up with the disk icon with the blinking ?. All but one that is. The lone LCII came up fine. I have 7.5.5 on all. I have not gone in to do anything about this yet. Just wondered if anyone wants to suggest anything to look for when I do start trying my magic. She did power down and reboot a couple of machines but the blinking disk ? icon came up again. If I remember correctly, that icon means Can't find a usable system disk. I have access to Norton Utilities. The lab was running quite well with just a few printing problems when we shut down in the spring for end-of-school. Jim -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
