Jim,
Welcome to my wor
This sounds suspiciously like a problem I had with a Jack of Diamonds PCMCIA
card (in a PB 1400)... I too couldn't make the damn thing connect. Well,
that¹s a half truth, it connected, but not nearly reliably enough. Once, I
saw the servers in the chooser (via AppleTalk) but instead of connecting,
I have 160MB drives for your PB for $18 plus shipping. Tested. Many come
with various Os's and original software as well.
email me if you'd like one.
Ed in NJ.

Well, he's got a 1400, so it's now coming down to extensions and OS. The
'gold' working system is OS 9.1, and relevant installed extensions are
the 3C589 driver, Apple Enet 2.4.2, EtherTalk Phase 2 2.5.7, Open Tr
Can't you just select the partition and use the "Erase Disk" command on the partition?
Or isn't that an option when you use the partition as VM? (I confess I haven't tried
this on a partitioned drive.)
(Norton Utilites and TechTool Pro will also optimize/ defragment the drive, FWIW.)

you might try the driver at our site---we have a version for the 3Com cards
on our site (under downloads), though I personally am not familliar with
your particular model.. Since we're having a "blizzard" here in the southeast
today, our s/w tech isn't in, so I can't ask him about it either..

Drew, I missed the previous post so ask: Why do you not like them, and
what do you prefer? And why? Thanks.

Try using the uninstall feature for the Farallon card. When I switched e-net
cards on my PB 1400 I had problems until I uninstalled the old driver before
installing the new one. There must be an invisible file or preference file
that has to be deleted before the old driver lets go.

Good point. But what about after each reboot? Does the OS just
open the same old VM store again, or does it make a new one?
