I think that I used something called "patched disk utilities" or tools maybe.. let me look yep. here it is HTH RP

"WATCH THE TEMPERATURE" Will do! gonna be awhile now... Almost time to get my behind back to "Real Work" 8-o RP

Time for Ram check! RP

I have been down that road also. The telling thing is that while running, I can freeze it up totally, and I can do it on demand! wiggle the power adapter [used more than 1] also freezes if you plug in either firewire, or usb device. I can at times [not on demand] make it freeze simply by...

I have been running a B&W G3 Rev. A. for quite a few years without incident. Note However, that it uses a scsi pci card, and therefor, scsi HDD, both internal and external, bootable... Zero problems, Think I'll Keep her a few more years... YMMV RP

Heck I'll try it... probably on the peecee first, they are after all disposable! And I kinda have a clue that the problem rests in the video chip, so I know where to concentrate my efforts... Any ideas where one should concentrate on the Ti?? RP

Except I don't know how, and never done it... Heck If I thought I could do that I have a PeeCee M.B. that could use that treatment also!! RP

Geeze.. when it rains it pours...Figgered I'd put the OS9 hdd from my lombard in the ti and the 10.3 hdd from the ti in the lombard! But. Of course I have the dreaded PowerPC 750L (LoneStar, Rev2.2) Copper G3 PVR =0x00088202 cpu. a single 256 RAM is probably Not gonna cut it on this Job, so...

As ClassicHasClass said Losing Classic is too big a price for me to personally pay, though. So Tiger forever on my PowerPCs When I can't use that anymore.... Sell the Farm and use Linux to browse, and ride off into the sunset!! RP

Yes... Thanks for the reply. Done all of that. Took one 100mhz ram from a working [for quite some time] wallstreet. Booted to both cdrom and hdd [10.3], will try 9.2. The thing will work seemingly indefinitely... unless, you move it, or ... and this may mean something more, you unplug the...

Well Now it has happened to me... Having heard about poor motherboard design on the early tiBooks, I have been feeling lucky, and being darn careful, of the book I use for Work. But, alas she has failed me! Not completely. Just If I move it or touch it just wrong, or... sometimes just because it...

Seems obvious, but, Did you get some "rubber renue" onto the "eye" ? RP

I may just have some 1400 plastic... tell me exactly what you need... you can have it for shipping, if I have it. Also, of course you know that the processor from your 540c is an upgrade for the 520... RP

Hmmm. I will look at mine very closely! Let ya know soon... I hope RP BTW the sonnet software does Not seem to be a necessity to run the sonnet cpu... so that is not an obstacle!

My B&W video card of choice is a GeForce 5200 flashed for Mac Could I trouble you for a Pic of said card? I'm just that type person... gotta see one to recognize one! BTW I googled the thing... but, It certainly can't look like All of Those!!! My guess is this one Heck in all the crap...
