My PowerBook G4 did the whole prohibitory-sign boot failure once or twice immediately before it refused to turn on ever again. Still not sure what died on it.

I'm home now and am in the process of a Archive and install of 10.3. It sucks but at least I won't have to reinstall my software. Strangely enough, I did not have to remove one o…

Doesn't sound good - cmd+v should be passed to the kernel, which would be the very first thing that gets loaded... if it's not even doing that... Try boot hd: or mac-boot from the …

Yes, before the bong sound.

Are you holding the keys down as soon as you press the power button?

Try booting up in verbose mode (hold down command-v on boot) and see what message it gives you when it crashes. Click to expand... No response. It still does the same thing.

Today I had to press the reset button on the back of my Lombard. After doing so MacOS X attempts to boot and stops at a circle with a line through it on a gray background. I know…

Edit: Here's the info from Wacom. "A. The Wacom Serial tablets can be used with a Serial to USB adapter in operating systems up to 9.2.2. Wacom has tested the Keyspan (www.keyspa…

Haven't tried my ArtZ tablet with OS X yet. Post your type of USB to ADB adapter and what USB adapter driver version and maybe others can help on that configuration part. In my A…

I don't think this will work because I THINK the ADB-USB shows up as just a USB device and doesn't pass through what the actual thing is... I think...

If anyone has or uses a Wacom digitizer tablet I could sure use some help. I have not been able to locate any kind of user guide for this thing. I was given a Wacom drawing tablet…

There are really three things to be concerned about here. The first is the boot drive. The Apple II scans for a bootable device starting at slot 7 and working towards slot 0. Fr…

My logic is because I was figuring the port would override the card in slot 6, but the procedure described will work. (I'm not as familiar with the IIGS as I'd like to be so I was …

The IIGS, if I recall, has its internal drive circuitry set for slot 6 by default. (So does the Apple IIc with its internal drive). This is because most people who bought the disk …

Exactly. Unfortunately I do not have a TV yet and therefore I am aching to test this theory out!!! I am itching to get a TV soon!

I don't understand this logic. If the entire world including the manual encourage I use slot 6, why would you encourage me to put it in a different slot exactly? Click to expand…

Looks like you're right... after reading the manual I'm inclined to agree it's a retrofit, in which case there's probably little chance of the original circuitry being in the box.

Doesn't look home-brew to me... my guess would be that they used the same back panel for both the SCSI version (as pictured) and the Smart Port version for the IIc. The IIc version…
