Hey listers.

I am putting my query to get a Pismo out on the G-Books list. As a list

time. Obviously, don't respond to the list. Please email me at

Hi,
I have a Wallstreet 300 mHz running OSX. It has been working fine until
recently when it started to simply go black. It then will not restart
without much effort... using force restart, pressing the power on key,
jiggling the power plug. Weird. When it does finally start up the
battery
KG,
When this happens, are you running on batteries?
If you are, your battery is the culprit, you should replace it.

Matthew,
I thought that the main differences between 9.1 9.2 an above were
just improvements to allow it to run in classic mode with X, but not
real improvements if you are working under Mac OS 9. If I'm wrong,
could someone let me know?

I too had problems going from 9.1 to 9.2.1 on my Wallstreet (266
w/512 RAM 12G HD) as well as my dual G4 450. My goal was 9.2.2 on both
machines, but I couldn't get past 9.2.1.
I'm just guessing but could the problem have to to with having more RAM?
I had 192 Mb in my Wallstreet when I went to

This same problem cropped up with my Wallstreet. In the beginning, it
was only one or two forced restarts, then it was fine. By the time I
ripped all my hair out in frustration, it was taking up to 30 (yes, 30)
forced restarts. I went through the usual suspects; ram, processor
board,
Actually, I am usually on the adapter?! Is there a way to test the
battery to see if it's trash?

Ah... great. Thanks for the insight and your time. Do you have the
names of any of these repair companies?

Here are the companies I found which repair powerbooks:
powerbookguy.com
pbparts.com
powerbooktech.com
powerbookmedic.com
wegenermedia.com
Most of these companies also sell pulled parts in working condition if
you feel like undertaking the repair yourself. I think the flat rate
for service was

I've had a bottom of the line G3 series Wallstreet given to me. I helped
get it to boot some time back and pulled data off of it...so I know it had a
dead pram battery then. I eventually got it to boot then by leaving it
plugged in for a while...but this time its sat plugged in for over 24

Okay, I bought my new newertech battery and i'm ready to move on to my
next project before I can go on the road with it.
What's a good adhesive to apply to the original feet and keep it there.
I'm looking for an adhesive that won't ruin the plastic on my pismo's
case.
Thanks. :)
So what if we don't want the entire drive cloned and only our user
directories? My brother shares my powerbook with me when he's home
from college. I want to backup our files to a hard drive but not the
entire drive which would include the OS and other applications.

Must be something with your setup. Find by content works lightning fast
on my 17-inch iMac and my 15-inch Al Book. Maybe a faster processor/G4
Andrew,
I thought about the RAM amount and swapped out for the original RAM
with no luck. So I tried the 9.1/9.2.1/9.2.2 path and it worked. Don't
know why, but I'm happy with the end result. Worth a try.

Check the March 2004 MacAddict. On page 64, Battery Life. I'm
guessing the 4 digit number displayed would be the mAh of the battery?
