CF as VM

There was a post here a few weeks ago about using CF with an adapter as virtual RAM. Would that be useable as a means of adding RAM for Photoshop or other simlar "hungry" apps? I have that 5300 with 24 RAM, since CF should be (is it?) faster than the latency/access times of SCSI it might be wo

Re: CF as VM

Well, keep in mind that CF is only good for around 10,000 writes or so before it wears out... I think it's more suitable for a static filesystem. -Original Message- From: PowerBooks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Brian Sent: Sunday, May 05, 2002 9:25 AM To: PowerBooks Subject: CF

sad mac code - portable

Hello: I have a Mac Portable that I am trying to resuscitate. On startup with an internal hard drive connected, I get the following sad mac code: 0014 CD36 I do not get the sad mac codes when I remove the hard drive and boot off an EXTERNAL floppy; then the portable starts up okay.

By now you've got several accurate and identical answers (flash card + pcmcia adapter) to your question. The only thing left out is that your 5300, with its 8-bit color (assuming it's not grayscale!), 640x480 resolution and painful slowness, is pretty ill-suited to digital photography. You'll

I assume you had to reformat the CF from PC to Mac in order to use it as a RAM disk. How did you get the CF to format as a Mac disk? Are you using HFS or HFS+? Donna Pointer-- iMac, ergo iAm =20 >> There was a post here a few weeks ago about using CF with an adapter as >> virtual RAM. >> =20 >>

Best System 7 version for PB 540c?

Hello listers, I have a 540c that I got secondhand in great condition that I've managed to install Mac OS 8.1 in. It runs well, but it can be a little slow, not to mention fat in the HD. I'd actually like to downgrade to the best System 7.x version for that PowerBook model. I have 7.5.3, 7.5.5

Re: Best System 7 version for PB 540c?

Actually, System 7.1 would probably run great. Despite the official specs, Netscape 4.0.8 will run fine on it, and I think IE 4 will as well. There was a... discussion on one of the other lists about 7.1, and in the end there's very little that won't run on 7.1 that will on 7.5 or 7.6. You can

Re: Best System 7 version for PB 540c?
