Re: 7100/80 with Sonnet Crescendo not working
Denis Eddy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It is far better that you sort out the conflict now than kludge the load order of extensions. [space]EM Extension should be followed immediately by [space]Sonnet Processor Upgrade (version 2.3.1), before all other extensions (without the initial space in their names). This will get you the Sonnet splash panel under the OS splash screen, and show the Sonnet icon as the first in the March of the Icons across the bottom of the screen. It also gets your upgrade card marching sooner rather than later. A pain perhaps, but if you don't sort out the extension conflict now, it will rear its ugly head at some even less convenient time. Agreed. I nailed it down to the Apple CD-ROM ext and Sound Manager. Fortunately, neither are needed for this particular system, or I'm willing to risk loading them first and see what happens. More to the point it is that you give thought to maximizing RAM and upping your OS to at least 8.6. Surely the G3 deserves better than an iffy version of a largely 68K-oriented System? RAM is maxed. Unfortunately, this machine is my daughters dedicated sampler/sequencer for her keyboards and it's hosting Digidesign Nubus hardware and software that must use a particular OS. Otherwise I wouldn't hesitate. So far so good and it's performing well and much snappier. Audio processing speed is definitely up. Sorry for posting this to this 68k list, but since I'm stuck with this older OS, I didn't think I'd get many answers on a PPC list. Thanks for all the help.

I have come across a treasure chest of vintage Mac software, cables, publications, and even a hand-held scanner.

I will catalog and photograph the contents of the five boxes of this stuff for anyone interested. I do however, have a request.

Re: Drive problems
A little more info. These drives have been in these computers for at least a year working fine. When I try to boot the IIci or 7500 the drives spin up but then I get the flashing question mark. Could they have become unmounted some how? I've also tried reseating the ram and vram, but that didn't seem to do anything. I also was able to boot the 7500 to an external CD (since now the internal CD doesn't seem to want work either) with system 8, and it could see the internal cd and an unmounted drive which I'm assuming is the HD. Could unplugging the original drive have done something when I tried to add a slave drive, like a conflict that got rid of the start up drive?

Drive problems
Hi, This post has questions for the compact list and the PCI list, so I'll post to both. I've been having some drive issues with a IIci and a 7500. The IIci has a Turbo601, 128mbs ram, 2gb HD. I'll either get the 4 chime sound and a black screen when I boot up or I get the flashing question mark. I can boot from an external HD that's running 7.0.1. Could this be a dead drive or could the Turbo601 have died? The 7500 has a Crescendo 450mhz card, 512mb ram, 1gb quantum fb hd. I tried to add a 9gb seagate scsi HD as a slave, but could never get it to recognize the drive in combination with the master 1gb. I did get the machine to boot with a CD running 8.0 and formated the drive and broke it into 4 partitions. Now when I boot all I get is the flashing question mark when the original drive is in by itself. I cannot boot from the CD any more either. I tried 3 other quantum drives and all I get is the flashing question mark. How in the world can I have 5 dead drives when they were all working? Thanks for your help.

Re: Mac Plus Server
Actually your odd question is funny. You're right, it's got machttp running right now. I have Netpresenz on there and machttp 2.2, but for some reason netpresenz won't display the images. Maybe I didn't share all the folders inside the web folder and it can't find the images folder. I'm not sure about having the hdds spin down. Can you do that under 7.0.1? That miniscribe makes a lot of noise when it's accessed. Is there a way to change the 10-Oct-105 thing? I get that on a IIci server I have, but only some browsers pick that up like Safari. IE on a PC reads it as 2005. One other questions. I have a Mac512 modified with a Dove 2mb upgrade and scsi port coming out of the battery slot. I hooked the 512 up to the external hd and it booted system 7.0.1 and I was able to open about this mac and then it froze. I assume sys 7.0.1 doesn't work with a 512. So is there any webserver software that runs under system 6.0.8?

Apple Internet Router
Hi, Does anyone know how to hook a Mac Plus up to DSL via a LocalTalk cable and another Mac? I've got the Plus running 7.0.1 and MacTCP with 4mbs RAM and a 20mb HD. It's sitting next to an SE/30 with 7.5.5 connected directly to a hub that's connected to a DSL router. All my Macs can see the Plus and the Plus can see all the other Macs. From what I've read, I need Apple's Internet Router on the SE/30 and the Plus would have it's gateway set to the SE/30s IP address, correct? Now would this allow me to run a server off the Plus and can I just assign it an IP? So if I put MacHTTP on it and open a port, let's say 81 can someone ping it from the outside world? Where do I get Apple's Internet Router? I've looked around for it but just found patches on the old software site. Is it an addon that comes with system 7.5.5?

Mac Plus
I'm trying to hook up an external HD to a Mac Plus with 4mbs of ram.The HD set to SCSI 6, and I have a terminal plug in the other SCSI socket. The HD is a 2G Quantum Fireball ST. I can't get the Plus to boot from the drive. However I have an old 20mb HD that has system 6.0.8 on it and when I stick it in the same case as the Quantum (swapping it) it boots from 20mb drive. I put system 7.5.5 on the Quantum via a Mac SE/30, but still the Plus won't recognize the drive to boot off. I can boot off a floppy and the HD drive comes up and I can see all the system software. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. Thomas -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

The last time I heard anything about Bandai was back when Power Rangers was the thing to watch. They made the action figures and got really rich in the mid-90s. I didn't know Bandai did electronics... --- Arnel Tuazon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From Wikipedia: The Apple Pippin was a technology for a multimedia title player (sometimes mistakenly referred to as a games console ) designed by Apple Computer in the mid-1990s. It was based around a 66 MHz PowerPC 603e processor, and ran a cut-down version of the Mac OS. The goal was to create an inexpensive computer aimed mostly at playing CD-based multimedia titles, especially games, but also functioning as a network computer. It featured a 4x CD-ROM drive and a video output that could connect to a standard television monitor. Apple never intended to release its own Pippin. Instead it intended to license the technology to third parties, a model similar to that of the ill-fated 3DO. However the only Pippin licensee to release a product to market was Bandai. By the time the Bandai Pippin was released, (1995 for Japan, 1996 for the United States) the market was already dominated by the Nintendo 64, Sony PlayStation, and Sega Saturn, machines which were much more powerful as game machines than the more general purpose Pippin. In addition, there was little ready-to-go software for Pippin, the only major publisher being Bandai itself. Costing US$599 on launch, it was also expensive: though touted as a cheap computer, this was only true if compared to the Macintosh. It was far more expensive than a PlayStation. Ultimately, Pippin as a technology suffered because it was a late starter in the 3D generation of consoles, and was under-powered as a gaming machine and personal computer. Bandai's version died a quick death, only ever having a relatively limited release in the United States and Japan. I also checked out links from this description and came to the 3DO and M2 both of which used RISC processors (i.e. 3DO used the ARM60 32-bit and the M2 used a PowerPC 602/33). So, all in all, I'm sorry but the Pippin does NOT belong on this list. Please take it to the PowerPC list. Thank you. ;D BTW thanks and nice find!

Re: MacTCP and MacHttp
I can now get the 512k to boot system 6.0.8 with MacTCP, however I'm not sure if I'm putting the right Dayna SCSI/Ethernet extension in. It's a tight fit getting all that on an 800k floppy.

Does anyone have anything lower than 2.2? As a side note, it made me laugh when I launched Kings Quest I over LocalTalk and it ran on the 512. Why do these goofy things amuse us so much?

Re: Can someone help me get my old reliable Mac IIci on the web?
http://www.lantronix.com/device-networking/external-device-servers/uds-10.html Wow. So this little device looks like it will fit on the 512 if you use a DB9 to DB25 converter and plug it in the phone or printer port? I see it also has a built in web server, I'm assuming you can configure this from a PC, so in theory you could attach it and serve files from the 512 and you wouldn't have to add MacTCP to the 512 or anything?

Re: Can someone help me get my old reliable Mac IIci on the web?
I've got a IIci and an SE being used as a web servers. The IIci has a video card, a Turbo601 card, Ethernet card and 2gig hard drive. The SE has a DaynaPORT SCSI/Link-T to Ethernet connection and an 80mb hard drive. Both are connected to a Netgear 10 base T hub (since the old Ethernet cards have trouble connecting directly to a router) and that's connected to a Linksys router. The IIci serves up pretty fast, but the SE is dog slow, but it works. A good way to move files from your PC to your ci is to put NetPresenz FTP server on the ci and just drop and drag files from XP or W2K. I also have an SE/30 all ready to serve when I get a site built. And if anyone can think of a way to turn a Mac 512k into a server let me know. Alan and Greg came up with some good ideas.

Re: Mac 512 and LaserWriter IIg questions
It's all about sheer geekiness, or at least my wife think that. Why do you have all these little Macs in the office, they're not like pets or anything. Please don't turn the toaster oven into a web server. lol I think the serial port hard drive would be easier to find than the 3rd party ram upgrade. What if you dropped down to a lower system like 3 or 4? I think the recommended system for a 512 is like 3.2? MacTCP wouldn't work with that would it nor would WebStar would it? I saw an Atari 800 as a web server, however I think the IP was on an outside device and when hit, the Atari would just squirt out a few lines of html and that was about all it could do with 48k. I'm just wondering if this was a solvable problem.

I guess you could shoehorn System 6.0.8 plus MacTCP onto an 800K floppy, but what apps or extensions would provide the actual web sharing? You wouldn't get WebStar on the same floppy. A 512k/e with an extra (external) floppy drive just conceivably might allow you to run WebStar, if there's a version of WebStar that would run in what's left of 512K RAM after System 6 including TCP are loaded into RAM... but then, umm, exactly what files would you be sharing up over the web, your own System Folder? Unless you had one of those ancient serial-port hard disks, then you could put HTML files on it. That would be one seriously sluggish web site, though... TCP over LocalTalk bridge. It would be downright fantastic for sheer geekiness to do it, but I'm guessing the sticking point is the RAM. I seem to recall one of those Get your Classic System 6 Mac on the Internet sites where the challenge of getting a 512k/e online was marked unsolved but I'm still trying. It may be that System 6 and MacTCP together leave you with very little left over to run anything in. My LC is sitting here next to me... ::switches KVM switch:: I'm running MultiFinder and more than a few extensions in addition to MacTCP, but System 6.0.8 is eating 2914 K plus 160 K for Finder. You could rename WebStar to Finder and set the file type and creator to that of Finder's and run a Finderless web server, that'll save you some K. But 512 is a very small space to work in. Now, of course, if you've got your hands on one of those incredibly rare 3rd-party RAM upgrades for the 512k/e (the ones that you had to clip and solder) as well as a serial hard disk, all bets are off ;) My second question is, what is the pds slot on a LaserWriter IIg motherboard for?

I have ports 80 and 8080 forwared to that machine and it's also outside the DMZ. A few people on the outside have been able to hit it and someone told me their security level was low on their browser. Could that have something to do with it? Most people who hit it just get a time out. I swear I'm going to squeeze every bit of usefulness out of this IIci. lol If anyone can ping it the address it http://atantavintagetravel.no-ip.info:8080 Thanks in advance, Thomas - Original Message - From: Chris Fohl [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Vintage Macs vintage.macs@mail.maclaunch.com Sent: Wednesday, January 12, 2005 6:14 PM Subject: Re: Mac IIci web Server Just a few things to consider: a) make sure you can see it from within the LAN via the LAN IP first. b) you have to be outside the LAN to see the WAN IP it's routed to. c) if your router is web browser configurable you want something other than port 80 since the router is already using it for WAN access requests.

PowerMacintosh 7500
I've got a question about a PowerMac 7500 I got about a month ago. It's running OS 8.6, 133mhz 32mb 1gb. The weird thing that happens when I download a file or move one over from my IIci it'll freeze up sometimes, or if it transfers, when I go to open the folder, everything slows down and the arrow jumps around all hurky jerky. Sometimes the file will eventually open after 5 mins or more, sometimes I'll just freeze up. Any thoughts on this? Thanks Thomas -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Hooking up a LW IIf to Win2k and XP
Just wanted to share a tip about something I figured out about hooking a LaserWriter IIf to a Mac IIci, a Win2k box and an XP box. I was trying to get this old LaserWriter IIf on the home network so all these computer could share it. The IIf is hooked up to the Mac IIci which is hooked up to the homenetwork via ethernet. It also has localtalk bridge on. I went into my Win2k box and went under the start menu, control panels, network connections, local area connection, properties, general tab, and highlighted internet protocol, clicked install, clicked protocol and added AppleTalk. This only works on Windows 2000, XP doesnt support AppleTalk. Then went to start, control panels, printers, add printers, local printer, create a new port (type AppleTalk Printing Devices). It should detect any AppleTalk printers, when you click ok don't capture it or it will only be available to your 2K box. Share the printer. Any other systems on your network should be able to print to it, however all your printing has to pass through your 2K box and then through your Mac. Does anyone know how to set up a fileserver on a Win2K box for Macs? Also, does an SE/30 accept PowerPC accelerators? Tom -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

LaserWriter IIf
Hey, just wanted to confirm something about a LW IIf. I turn it on and it keeps rebooting and doesn't print a test page. There's a soft click coming from the power supply every time it reboot. From what I've found on the web, this sounds like a bad AC power supply and needs to be replaced. It probably isn't the motherboard, correct?

Re: LW IIf
Hey Allan, Installing the LocalTalk bridge did the trick. The IIf is working perfectly. How do I share it with PCs that are on the same home network? Also, how can I get my IIci to see a Lexmark printer that's shared across the home network? Thanks again! Thomas - Original Message - From: Allan Hunter [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Vintage Macs [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2004 9:04 PM Subject: Re: LW IIf How are you physically connected to the IIf? Standard LocalTalk? PhoneNet? Have you verified that AppleTalk is on and that the right port is selected? Cable good? Have you tried switching the printer off and then back on? Or are you trying to use EtherTalk (AppleTalk over Ethernet) instead? (Lots of folks do, so as to network with other machines on a LAN). Are you using a LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge to get the IIf online? If you're doing this, have you checked to make sure your AppleTalk connection is set to rely on Ethernet and not the Printer Port (LocalTalk)? It *will* default to Printer Port if you zap the PRAM or the parameter RAM settings get hosed in some fashion, including via low PRAM battery. You mentioned having the PPC upgrade in your ci. If I remember correctly, it would not be terribly unusual for that to affect timing issues for LocalTalk. If you are using a standard LocalTalk or PhoneNet connection and sometimes it's there and sometimes your printer is missing in action, you might want to consider the Enet-to-LocalTalk bridge and putting an Ethernet card in (if you don't already have one). Oh, and you can never have too many Macs. If you get a PM 7500 you can set it up as a file server that everything from modern Macs running Panther to System 6 Macs can mount on Desktop and access in common.

Re: R E Q U E S T
Hey, If you're emailing from a PC, find TransMac. The shareware version will let you read and write Mac floppies on a PC. Download Open Transport from http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html Find a copy of Unstuffit if you don't have one. Stick that on via floppy. Stick your ethernet card in and hook it up to a dumb hub like a NetGear one. It has to be a 10mb hub, not autosensing. Hook that up to your router. Put an FTP server on your LC, like NetPresenz via floppy. Put an FTP client on your PC. You should be able to FTP stuff back and forth.

LaserWriter IIf
Does anyone know anything about the LaserWriter IIf? I've got it hooked up to a PC running windows 2k. I'm getting several problems with it. I havent been able to print from it yet. 1. I'm occasionally getting all 4 lights blinking. I dont think there's a paper jam. 2. I'm getting occasional smeared test pages with alternating semi smeared test pages coming out. Looks like a toner problem, correct? 3. When all 4 lights aren't blinking I just get a continuous blinking green light when I try to print to it and nothing ever comes out. 4. If this printer is hooked up to a PC (I previous had it on a Win95 box about 7 years ago and it worked fine) can it be shared on home network? 5.

Re: Asante Nubus Card
The cables are good. The Mac says I've got OT 1.1.2 I'm running OS 7.5.5. I think you're right about the auto sensing router and switch. Where do I find a dumb hub? The Linksys one I found is an auto sensing hub. How can I see if the Asante card is even showing up in the system? Is there a way to set the Mac on a static IP? I don't have any idea how to do this with the router.

new to the list
Hey everyone, I'm new to the vintage macs list. I'm trying to resurrect my old Mac IIci. It boots up fine and seems to be in the condition I left it about 8 years ago. I've ordered an Ethernet card, a cache and 32megs of RAM. It's running system 7.5.3 with an 80meg hard drive. First question, does anyone know where the battery sits and how you replace it? There's something that appears to be the internal battery, but it looks like it's soldered. Second question, since this Mac doesn't have any internet software on it, how do you get anything like Netscape 2.0 or Claris Emailer on there? I've got PC exchange, but so far I haven't had any luck moving things over. The Mac just sees the apps as some PC file and won't run them. Third question, does anyone have their old Macson a PC LAN? I've got a couple PCs hooked up to DSL through a router. What can you do with an old Mac if you stick it on a network like this? Can you use it as a fileserver for the PCs? Thanks!

Iisi Presto No FPU?
Hi, I've got a IIsi, 64meg, Presto 040, 7.6. The Presto has a nice riser board with 2 PDS connectors which, I'm assuming, allows the use of an additional PDS card. However, when I plug my Asante MacConII (adaptor w/68882 FPU on board) into it, the system does not see the FPU chip. If I unplug the Presto and leave the MacCon plugged into the riser, the system sees the FPU just fine. I'm guessing the 040 can't pass off instructions to the FPU? Is this normal? What will work in that extra slot? Haven't tried the ethernet part of the MacCon yet. I hope that works, but I have to do some slight hardware mods to make it physically fit. Also, any reason not to install OS8 on this system? Thanks in advance for all the good advice! Randall -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Iisi Presto No FPU?
~~~ The biggest problem you're having is that the fpu is a 68882. That's dog slow to a 68040 CPU. It is being snobby, refusing to acknowledge the presence of that grandpa chip. I see your point. So..., I suppose that means I'd be better off running a soft FPU? This Presto has no FPU integrated. Randall -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Well, I decided to throw this PCI Radius card into my G3 Workgroup Server (which I didn't want to do because it's been running smoothly for 5 months without a restart) to run System Profiler and see if it gave a clue.

LC 450 startup problems
Hi everyone, I've recently inherited a (broken) LC450, and I was hoping you guys could help. I get a proper startup bong then nothing, no sad mac no nothing! There doens't seem to be a problem with the monitor, there are 2 sys7 sounds installed into the startup items and these never sound, so it doesn't seem to be starting up. Could this be the PRAM battery? I've tried it without the additional VRAM and RAM installed, still to no avail. Any help would be great.

Re: LC 450 startup problems
Ah, thanks Jeff. I had a similar problem with an old Performa 5260 (a sad beast I know). It used to start after a few restarts. I'll give that a try. On Saturday, October 18, 2003, at 05:43 pm, J.S.

Thanks Thomas If it bongs, then you're getting the ROM to function. Like the Quadras, the LC 475 likes to NOT fire up with a dead P-RAM battery. You CAN restart it rapidly, twice, and fool it into starting with a dead battery. Try that before going on to other troubleshooting stuff.

found SE/30 in trash...want to repair
Someone by my house tossed out a Mac SE/30 yesterday and I snagged it. No keyboard or mouse...but the case is in perfect condition. The Mac powers on and makes the boot sound but the CRT just has a single vertical line running right down the middle of the screen. Any advice on trying to repair this problem? Thanks for any tips.
