Well, I did not really care about the casing on the donor book. I was gonna scrap it anyways, since the thing is held together with scotch tape in places 8-o Part of the trackpa…

OS X does support SCSI. I am unsure about the serial port and I know the DVD decoder does not work (I tried). Good job at stripping all those parts in 2 hours I must say. Would …

Alright, I got it all assembled. It's booted to my OS 9 disc, writing zeros on the 10gb drive, should take a while. I might burn OS X Jag again, since my copy is messed up. Only t…

IT'S ALIVE!!! I did some tweaking, and it turns out the motherboard in my main WS is shot somehow. I put the sonnet in the donor, and it boots!! So, my next goal is to swap ALL th…

Well, there is a firmware update for the processor card it's self, as well as a driver for it. I think I need to install the driver first, and I wonder if the firmware can be insta…

Wallstreets cannot get firmware updates do they? I would email their tech support and ask them what is wrong, and if they cannot get it working send the thing back (if there is a w…

Try running an external monitor, internal video might be dead. Click to expand... I did that/ That was actually the first thing I tried, before a PMU and PRAM reset. I hooked i…

Actually, macdan has a solution that does not involve finding the same hinges (all three displays use different hinges, but the same clutch). All you need to do is pop off the clut…

On side note, is it worth taking apart a 233 no L2 fully working and installing a 266 in unknown shape? I was given a wallstreet 14" that has bad hinges and has been stripped of …

Yes, incompatible RAM will give you death chimes (same if you forget to put any RAM in like I did once). Generally PC100 and 133 is labled as such, PC66 generally isn't unless it i…

No, I have 2 working motherboard (one in the main machine, and one in the parts donor), so I am set. The other sound/power board in the main machine works perfectly, so I am keepi…

I have some Wallstreet 2 motherboards if need want to buy one. Which sonnet card are you using that does not work? Any chance it needs PC100 RAM and you have PC66? If the machine…

yeah, the case on the other one is really beat up, so I might as well swap in the mobo. But the power board on the other one is loose, so I have to hold in the power plug. One new…

I'm no expert but it sounds like something on the logic board is screwy. If it was just the fan, I'd say it was a sensor but its the charging too that does it. Switch it all and …

Hi guys. I have my pride and joy, 300mhz 14" wallstreet PDQ, and I figure it's time to resurrect it to see if I can. IIRC, it has a problem with the fan staying on, from the time I…

Eef, if there was a hole blown in the lobo, sounds like the poor little thing has been put out to pasture. I'd nose around for another lobo for it to see if you can breathe some li…

I hate to say it, but it sounds like that one's past doing too much with, apart from stripping for parts...I'd look around for another 1400, working, and keep that one for parts. A…

Hi! i have one of those powerbooks 500 with a nupower PPC 630e at 117mhz, and like you said... that's a really solid notebook, the innards are made of steel! 8-o , very impressiv…

hi!, this is my first post and i really need your help, some days ago i bought from internet a pb1400 almost mind but it say "doesn't turn on" on the place, anyway.. just for $30 b…

Nvm, talked to derekat(Idk if any of you remember him but he used to post here before the crash) and he said try it without the hard drive, tried that, it worked, tried different j…

It turned on before but the hard drive was dead, swapped the hard drive, tried turning it on but it doesn't do anything. I hear the CRT have a slightly high pitch noise, so it's g…

Here's a question for which I have not found the answer: The Apple II, as you should know, has some soft-switches, memory locations which cause some setting to change. My question …

I downloaded that PDF a few months ago but haven't read it yet. Maybe I should do that. Click to expand... It's a tough slog, especially if it's the first time through. But S…
