Dear Tom: Thanks for your help! My cd-rom drive is now working. Whew!
I do intend to purchase more RAM but read that in the S900 the sticks have to be installed in pairs... Am I understanding that to mean I need two of whatever RAM sticks I buy? (I don't recall a double-em-up rule when I upgraded the RAM on my G3!) I'd like to go ahead and get at least 128 MB. RAM Doubler will have to hold us until I get the new RAM. The 2nd hard drive doesn't spin up at all and the Drive Setup utility doesn't see it either. I see the fan case in front of it is empty, but there are two working fans in the upper portion of the case. I do have an extra external hard drive so I'm not too worried about space, but I am going to look for the SCSI-Probe utility. That sounds like a useful utility to have around. All in all, I'm pretty happy now with it. It seems like a good deal for 4 bucks and one Sunday's worth of work. We won't be using it for the internet, just word-processing and some games. My son is very happy with it! Bonnie -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
