I need the drivers for a Global Village 56K/ethernet PCMCIA card. The website has to be the worst one I have ever seen. I have a Gold data/Fax card, and for that one's drivers I did find (by Google) a link that bypasses their STUPID log-on process (which wouldn't let me have this file),

I'm actually suprised you got 7.5.3 to install.. I didn't have any luck with my 1400, I was given the error that it didn't support that os, and had to install 8.1. But I have gotten that error before.. What I found was that the ribbon cable that connects the hd to the mobo was partially loose.

I was too tired last night to go through much beyond PRAM, but today when I turned it on, it began to show digital garbage -- not graphic, then suddenly when the Mac OS 8.6 screen came up, it was fine. It continued to boot and acts normally. We're going to take it apart this weekend anyway, and

The DragLib function is actually built into the MacOS 8.6 System file, so it sounds like the problem is coming from an old extension that is explicitly trying to open the old DragLib file. Look for extensions circa 1990-1993 and disable them one by one until you find the culprit. By the way,
