Ben,
Thanks Ben Sivertsen for the tip to drag the hard drive to the Trash, though
I'm still encountering hard drive spin-up. In fact, when the drive was
spun-down, dragging it to the Trash caused it to spin-up!
I'm almost tempted to erase the hard drive, but I want an alternative boot disk
in
Has anyone ever tried to use another type memory card (like a SD or SM card)
other than a CF in an adapter as a HD?
I wonder how long it will be until we're all using memory cards as the main
HDs in our classic Powerbooks, especially in our SCSI Powerbooks? Mabe someone
could create an adapter
Hi I think that you will find that if you plug a cf to ide adapter
into an adtx ide to scsi adapter that will already work and you could
have a cf hdd on a 500 powerbook or on a duo.

Now, THAT would be an item I'd buy immediately! Just imagining a totally

I never thought of this before, but could my AC adapter be the reason
my batteries aren't charging? These ones did the exact same thing the
ones in my other PowerBook did and this is the same adapter. If I
shake it it makes a rattling noise, it's held together with tape, and
my PowerBook just
Very possible: if you have the ability to do so, check the output voltage when
you rattle it.
If this passes, check the integrity of the connector (may necessitate the
dismantling of your PB, a delicate exercise).
I would even take apart the adapter (not when plugged-in !!!) to see what is
I dropped it and taped it back. Nothing I own lasts very long... How
would I get it open to see what's loose?

Oh yeah. I guess I should mention that it's not cracked all the way around.

Of course. It's a dismount operation. The drive has to be spun up
so the OS can write the final bits from the
