Re: PB 1400 Question

If the pauses are new, your hard drive may need defragging. Norton has SpeedDisk, which is a defragging program in Norton Utilities. It would require starting from the Norton CD. (Start the 1400 and hold down the option, command, shift and delete keys together until the CD drive starts to mount.)

Re: PB 5300cs network troubles

That 2400 modem could be dead. I had one that died a very early death. It was the very first modem I bought after my 300. I jumped all the way to 14400 after that. Wow. 56000 is the current standard--that's 56k. PowerBooks 6/9/03 6:33 AM [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Re: PB 5300cs network troubles > Fro

Thankyou all for the recent replies, I'm running Techtool Pro now, optimising the disk. With any luck, that will work :) I thought it may be the networking problem at first, but this happened from the moment I installed a clean version of 8.6, so I didn't think that could be it... Once the disk i

Mysterious Word 5.0 alias

I'm not sure exactly how to approach this one. Some time ago I acquired a Travelstar external PCMCIA HD for my PB3400 OS 8.6. It works pretty good, though I had trouble initially moving files between the HDs due to an apparent i compatiblity with ValueFax extensions. Turn off VF and no worries.

EPSON Installer Problem Review

For the Record: In trying to get the Epson software installed on my PB3400 running OS8.6 I learned two things. Increasing Finder memory reduces some of my crash time, and I was introduced to ResEdit. Also, I might add, Epson support is very good, though not overtly Mac savy. In the end, I down
