Airport cards (made by apple) will only work in the airport slot of an airport capable Mac. It will not work in a PC Card slot. Airport card is very similar to the Lucent Wavelan, with a few alterations to keep it from being used in a PC card slot The reason being was apple's airport was...

Mint PPC will do WPA on Airport/WaveLan. OS X just won't do WPA with the original 802.11b. In fact, 802.11b is completely within the WPA standards (got done doing a networking+ class). and can prove it that I have done that on a Lombard with a WaveAccess Gold PC Card on my Lombard under Linux...

Do I smell money being made parting out systems that parts are good, but the systems are bad? you might make a killing off of ebay if you take up the option to sell a lot of parts, especially if you find rather rare stuff. You could come out several thousands of dollars ahead, especially with...

of course, if the file system header or table is corrupt it might think it's been unformatted. Especially if it's a file system other than what the mac uses (FAT or HFS) I suppose you could try to run Norton Utilities on it, but that may/may not work. I would try that and see, but if the...

I will look at the Apple //c tomorrow. It's in my dad's car (i headed out there with him and found it) so I don't know if it works. the LCD works very nicely. I got it hooked up to my MacBook Pro. very nice image. They said they powered up the Apple //c and said it booted once, then didn't...

I went to GoodByte's today looking for a laser printer. No laser printer, but I ran across an Apple //c with AppleColor Composite monitor, an external 5.25" floppy, joystick, imagewriter (all of them are in perfect plastics. Snow white! little to no yellowing!!!) I also picked up an unknown...

I am pretty sure any macs with USB (except the bondi G3) and that includes the Lombard don't have the issues with OS X on bigger than 6GB Drives. Anything wallstreet/beige G3 and the like required to the partition to be less than 8GB Drives. Oh, and that only applies to the internal IDE...

I think there's a switch on the card that also sets the terminator at the card. If not (i seem to recall there is) or you cannot figure it out, you may have to provide a pass-thru terminator as the first thing after the card before the devices you add. It's not enough to just put one terminator...

the Apple II SCSI Cards have to have Term Power provided, otherwise you can't terminate it. If your drive you put on it doesn't provide terminator power, the card won't see anything at all. When I had mine, I had that issue. Most drives don't provide Term power, or they are low-end and they...

Ok, well my bad. You could always download TechTool Lite from some site and try it. I think they have it on system7today. or browse ftp://coius.dyndns.org and look for "Mac Test Pro" I know I shouldn't link to it, but it was made for the G3 systems (powerbook/iBook/imac) but specifically for...

is the 270 32-bit clean? how much ram do you have left? also try trimming extensions.

I think most stuff in 8.5+ is PowerPC code and not Fat binary. So trying to run that would bomb a 68k machine depending on how it tries to run it.

I picked up my battery for $39 shipped. It works great and have been sitting here for near-30 minutes and it's at 94%. It's a 6600mah battery. I think I counted close to 5-6 hours under OS X yesterday from a full charge. I can give you the name of the seller. it works awesomely and would...

considering that the G3 ran cooler than most CPUs I have seen, and the other fact that I think the G3 chip itself has a heatspreader on it (not quite sure on that) which the pad/stuff rests on, it may be disapiting a fair bit of heat through that. Though full contact may be preferred. I will...

btw, if it doesn't have a pad, try applying some heat-sink grease too the CPU between the heat-sink and the spreader. you might not be transferring the heat or there might be a gap (I think there is a pad that is supposed to be on it). So you might also need to get a pad. Put it on the CPU...

what file system is the hard drive formatted as? If it's HFS Standard or FAT/32 it's not going to install. Also, if the drive was pre-formatted on a PC or a intel mac, it may be either MBR or GPT partition, in that case just format under OS X and you should be fine. OS X 10.3 won't install on...

Pismo arrived today (didn't post earlier) and I have done various benchmarks. I was planning on putting the Solid-state drive into it, but after looking at how the real-world performance measure up over a 30GB ATA hard drive, I have decided against it. the SSD will stay in my Lombard as while...

First thing's first. If you are having issues installing from the disc, set the CPU throttle to 8 (which is sensible). It has to do with the SCSI bus, and possibly initialization. Even if you don't install on a SCSI drive, it will possibly help, due to issues with OS X and the SCSI bus. I...

Coming all the way from the neighbors to my north (Canada), I have in the post office (just cleared customs) A 400Mhz Pismo! I think it has 320MB RAM, 30GB HDD, DVD-ROM and unlike last time I know it's going to be a Pismo (Name is ommited unless seller wants to say anything) coming from a 68k...

try this: http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=4&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true Down at the bottom is the 10.3 and 10.2 driver, You will need 10.2.8 minimum. So do the upgrades to 10.2.8
