MORE! PowerBook 1400c Memory Problems

I'm far from a tech expert on this, but here's my two cents' worth: Mactracker says the 1400 has "Motherboard RAM 16MB; maximum RAM 64MB". Does anyone know if there have been two kinds of 1400: one with 8MB on the motherboard, and one with 16MB? If so, I guess that the 1400 was designed for two

Re: MORE! PowerBook 1400c Memory Problems

PBs 1400 are notoriously RAM flaky. The 1400's memory controller is especially sensitive to timing variations in the RAM modules, and adding additional RAM usually makes things worse. The longer circuits (with additional modules) add capacitance which affects how the RAM and memory controller i

No, it isn't running the Sonnet 466, because that card made it unusable. It is now running a Newer 250. Otherwise you have everything else correct. It sees it all sometimes, and sometimes it doesnt see it all. Sometimes it sees 48, sometimes it sees 56. This is with the Newer card. I'm not e

My Fellow PowerBook-philes, Well, chalk this one up to not opening up my 1400. I think I might go do this now. BTW, anyone selling some 1400 memory? Mine came with a scant bit and I use a flash card and virtual ram to make it work. Sincerely, Pacer the Loon Dan Palka wrote: Well then

Powerbook 1400 maximum installed memory is 64 mb. Anything over that and you probably won't boot up. There are "quirks" with Powerbook 1400 memory modules. One of them is that reversing the position of the modules will sometimes solve memory recognition problems. Mine has 8 mb. built in, a 24 a

My Fellow PowerBook-philes, I am not sure I have heard of 3 cards being used in a 1400c. While only having one for my own, I do not have experience in this, but I always remember the memory card count being 2 in the articles I've read. Just a thought. I could be wrong. :-) Sincerely, Pace

So I have two 24mb cards and the apple factory 8mb card... When I boot with one 24 and the 8 it works fine and registers 40mb of ram (8 mobo + 8 apple + 24 expansion). When I boot with both 24s but not the 8 it works fine, registering 56. But when I put all three cards in there, it boots to a "t
