Re: Lombard OS X Install Crash

James, The Lombard uses the NewWorld ROM, instead of the OldWorld that the WS II uses, so that doesn't apply. I've got 9.2 on my first partition and Jaguar on my second, with no troubles. Caleb On Sunday, Jan 8, 2006, at 22:25 America/Chicago, James Sanderson wrote: Your installing OS X on t

Re: Lombard OS X Install Crash

The DVD-ROM drive may be at fault. I know that my Lombard has a really flaky drive that tends to quit working randomly, so that may be a part of it. Also, OS X is extremely finicky about RAM, so I'd try checking some known good RAM. Also, you could try using Carbon Copy Cloner on a friend's Lom

Re: Lombard OS X Install Crash

Your installing OS X on the second partition, could be the issue. It wants to be on the first partition. Either install it there or don't partition. Tried this on a WS II, installing on the second partition. It would not install until I repartitioned the drive to install X on the first. 9

Any experience with USB to SCSI adaptors in OSX?

Hello All I'm shifting from a Lombard to a Pismo and want to be able to connect to SCSI devices, specifically older powerbooks (520, 1400, Wallstreet) using the SCSI dock connector. To do this I've recently got a Belkin F5U015-TPW USB to SCSI adaptor but have had no luck finding drivers for

Re: Battery not charging properly.

I talked to NewerTech support, and they're going to set up a replacement battery, because of the symptoms shown. If anything, I commend them on having a good support team, and I think I'll be very happy with my replacement. Of course, I'm looking forward to having a mobile Lombard, to ride out

Re: Battery not charging properly.

Caleb, I would also suggest that you charge the battery for at leas 24hr with the Lombard turned off. I know that is hard if it is your only Mac, but I believe you will have much better luck by not using it until the battery is charged. Tom On 1/8/06 11:39 AM, "Caleb Cupples" <[EMAIL PROTECTED

Howard, I left the thing off for a good eight or so hours yesterday and nothing happened. After that, I got way too tired of using my Wintel machine, so I fired up the 'Book. 1% charge for a machine that has been plugged into the wall since 12 AM Saturday morning. Sleep, running or off, it sho

Re: Battery not charging properly.

This is just a wild guess but i think the new battery is a bigger capacity than the original to calibrate the battery meter you need to run it down all the way until os x tells you your power is low and then plug it in and charge it completely. Richard On Jan 8, 2006, at 6:06 PM, Howard Ka

Re: Battery not charging properly.

Could the problem be that you should be charging it 24 hours with the 'book turned off? Having it running might be the problem, or be giving false readings. LaterHoward -- G-Books is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com |

Re: Battery not charging properly.

I hope it's going to work properly, as well. However, my thoughts are leaning towards the non-functioning side of things, as it's been 15 hours since I plugged it in and over 9 hours since my last post, and it's still showing 1% charge according to XBattery and OS X. I'm starting to think it's

Re: Battery not charging properly.

Caleb, If you get the battery to work properly you will be pleased with the performance, as mine gave me an additional hour of use in my Pismo compared to the Apple battery. By the way, your questions were not stupid by any means! How else are you going to find things out if you don't ask and thi
