Re: 1400cs

In the back between the printer and keyboard ports is a small rectangle. This is the reset button. Push in and hold for 5-10 seconds and the machine should restart automatically. hth John on 10/26/03 7:12 PM, PowerBooks at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2003 19:19:36 +0200 > Subject

Re: Need help with 3Com ethernet card

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. John on 1/23/0

Re: PB 1400 G3 Upgrade Puzzle

There are two different cards that I know of. One is made by Apple the other by Focus I think. The Apple card was 8 bit and the other was 16 bit which had problems with stacked ram. Maybe you have the aftermarket card and not the Apple one. You don't need the video card if you're not going to use a

Re: 1400 woes

Try deleting the Sonnet software and using the PowerLogix G3/G4 Cache profiler or NuPower G3 controller for the G3 chip. IIRC Sonnet's software was the one that had problems with OS 8.6 and 9.1 on 1400's. Also I think the cache should be a 2:1 ratio for best stability. John on 11/28/02 3:32 PM, P

Re: 1400 won't start

Sounds like the power brick is N.G. Possibly the power circuit on the logic board may have fried. I had one go on my 1400. Its easy to replace though. Thr Power Manager reset can be pushed with the machine running, its how to reset if the system freezes. John > Ok, also, it will start with the

Re: 1400 no backlight on startup

Some 1400s needed a software fix for the backlight controls, brightness and contrast. One of mine had similar problems: extremely dark screen, contrast and brighter controls didn't work. It also came on for a few seconds at normal brightness before blacking out. The file is called "PowerBook 1400
