Re: Top vs. Bottom Posting

I find that both methods have their uses. Top posting can let you respond to the whole thought more readily, without leaving newcomers to the discussion completely out of the loop. Interlineated posting (bottom posting) lets you respond point-for-point, something that is particularly useful in mult

Thanks, I didn't realize that PRAM power was so important. A dead battery on a PC just causes the system to go to default. As usual for computers, the logical machines are not so logical sometimes - LOL. It was good info and something I will not forget on furure mac trouble shooting problems

Top vs. Bottom Posting

One of my pet peeves -- and something a lot of you have probably received a note about -- is people who quote the entire original message right down through the footer. The header. The ads. Everything. I go through each digest, scrolling past screen after screen of quoted material. It's too muc

Quadra 605, Performa 475, LC 475 - all are 68LC040-based; same (almost) main board, different skins. I've worked on all of them this past month. This is being composed on a chipped (68040/33) Q605; my test bench machine is a 68040/25 P475. Sp00ky Scott Holder observed: >A lot of older Mac

Re: Monitor problem and PPC 6500/250

I wish I know the answer to that, John. All I know, first from reading it on the list and later from substantial direct experience, is that one of the syptoms of a dead PRAM battery is the inability to recognize the video or to progress past the initial 'boing'. I've been spending the past several

Re: Monitor problem and PPC 6500/250

Question, how would a dead PRAM battery affect the video? I do understand that the date/time would get lost with a dead battery, the system goes back to default, but the video? I am not trying to be a smart ass with this question, I am looking for new infomation to put in the old memory bank!

Re: Monitor problem and PPC 6500/250

The best suggestion I have is to try to find someone who has a similar Mac and swap out the parts one at a time to see which component has truly gone south. Trouble shooting is a hit and miss at a best guess. >From other systems I have worked on it does appear (or not appear in this case - LOL)
