Re: How much could I ask for a PB3400c?

Hi everybody, I'm planning on selling my old Powerbook since I don't really use it anymore (just for some light browsing and a few old games), but I'm wondering how much could I get for it? I thought I'd ask you guys. The PB is NOT in mint condition, so maybe it'll be for parts. A short

Re: 3400C sudden screen zap

I have a 3400c/180 powerbook that was working perfectly until POOF - while typing, the screen just disintegrated and went blank. I've tried pressing the reset button and resetting the PRAM. Nothing. It restarts - there's the dong sound, then a whirring noise inside but just blank screen. Any ideas

Re: Duo hacking questions

I never did find them. Thanks for the tip, I will poke around when I get the chance. Last time I tried it, I randomly hit various pads hoping to get lucky. thanks, Mad Dog Mot has some PDFs (well, they did a few years ago before the semiconductor group started to tank) online with the pinouts of

Re: PB 1400/G3 - Problem #1

I recently got hold of a 1400/133 with a Sonnet Crescendo 333 mhz G3 card in it, running OS 8.5 ... although the G3 card seems to be working fine, I can't seem to put the Sonnet Upgrade extension in the system folder - whenever I do, it causes the powerbook to freeze during start-up just

Re: PB 1400/G3 - Problem #1

There have been reports of incompatibilities with Sonnet cards and 8.[56] [...] upgrade to 9.1. Yes, well I heard about that. Actually, someone (on another list) insisted that this incompatibility applies only to 8.6, not 8.5 ... but let's just say I'm bringing my question here because

Powerbook 550c parts

I just obtained a 550c from a friend; if anyone has any interest in the part I will not need: - a Japanese layout keyboard, but each key also has the corresponding (I guess) English letter character. It has almost the same arrangement as an English keyboard. - a NuPower card with 167Mhz

Re: PB 1400/G3 - Problem #1

My 1400 had 9.1 with a 333 and I didn't have any problems like that. Steve Brown -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com | Enter To Win A | -- Canon PowerShot Digital Cameras start at $299 | Free iBook! | Support Low

Powerbook 100 install 1 disk and disk tools disk

I recently aquired the classic Powerbook 100. The only problem is, I have to install system software which wouldn't be a problem because I can download it from various sites for free all day long. However, I need the Install 1 disk to begin installation as well as the disk tools disk. For

Re: 3400C sudden screen zap

My 3400 has periodically done the same thing. Usually, pulling the battery and resetting the PRAM solves it. I don't know whether you pulled the battery or not, but that is the only way to get mine to reset. It could be the backlight, though, or the power inverter. Gary On Thursday, June 10,

1400 / Wallstreet Wireless Question

Looking to go wireless with my current setup (a 1400 running 9.1 and a Wallstreet running Jag / 9.1). Does anyone have any advice on what combo to buy? I'd prefer something that's compatible with both, as to avoid mix 'n match hardware issues. Anybody?

Re: PB 1400/G3 - Problem #1

I have a 1400 with a Sonnet 400. I have the same problems with mine, but mine will make it past the loading, and will crash under slight usage. I was told that it may be a faulty L2 Cache. I emailed Sonnet and they agreed that it sounds like a faulty L2 Cache, but I am getting a little fuss

Re: An even better powerbook......

Now that it just great. I was rolling the entire time I was reading. I remember the story about the stolen iMac and how it was recovered through the use of Timbuktu Pro. This was soo much better Hahahahahaha!!! jonathan m metts --- every man dies, not every man really
