I have the 2400 docks and fixed both of them by edging the connector forward ( put a little bit of plasctic or cardboard behind it inside the dock). The 2400 docks are screwed shut from the bottom and open easily when the screws are removed. pb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I have just bought

Or at least a reinstall of the energy saver panel and the sys proper (not panels etc.). Software fixes first, always. They cost so much less. As my 2400 just recovered from a hd blowout I am also stuck by the point that awaking from sleep requires the hd to spin up. Is yrs spinning up? pb Scott

DT&T were very good at diagnosing my green light and popping in the new hard drive. They were also trying to fix the PCMICA card cage (the cards read but would not eject) and, although they claimed they replaced the cage it still did not work when I got it back. Over the phone, however, we split t

The hd on my 2400 broke at Xmas and DT&T put in a 6 gig replacement. I have partitioned its HFS+ initialisation into: 1 - 2.0 gig - where everything is now (and 'boot disk') except for 2 - 1.64 gig 3 - 1.95 gig. - a backup of the sys folder I usually copy files via SCSI (and file synch c

With the 2400 and the 1400 connected by a SCSI cable you MAY be able to boot by starting the 2400 first (should produce the b&w screen with 2 in a diamond moving across it) and then the 1400, which would make the 1400 the master. This would definitely work if the 1400 was a desktop machine. Or Y

I think a PCI card giving SCSI ports to yr G4 would be about $35 and that would eliminate such complicated thinking as RAM disks.Your 2400 would simply behave as a dumb disk again. pb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > O.K. after latenight coffees with my Mac guru friend, Cristian [shameless > plug,

And while praises are being sung, let me praise DT&T for doing a repair on a "green light" 2400 (turned out to be the hd). MCE politely told me they no longer repair 2400's (they still do cardbus mods and speed upgrades) and sent me to DT&T. We are very lucky to have this support for machines that

The standard cures don't seem to be working (rested it three days, did things with the power reset till my fingers nearly fell off). The power reset is working like an on-off switch for the green light: one short push turns it on, a second turns it off. Turning off is accompanied by a small static
