I knew I had seen something more about this somewhere, so went digging.... The 3400c is very like the 2400c, and for our purposes the key thing is that its cardbus capability is s…

Very few of the USB to serial cables support Appletalk.

If the machine is cardbus enabled, will this theoretically improve the drive's speed? If the machine is cardbus enabled, will this theoretically improve the drive's speed? Click…

I agree with MacJunky - the MP110 doesn't need a dongle - just connect using a standard Mac printer cable into whatever port on the Mac you are not using already (printer/modem). I…

my guess would be only if the adapter ur using is cardbus and not pcmcia

I am running the system via a pcmcia compact flash card. Click to expand... I am thinking about doing the same on my newly revived 2400c. What is the performance like on yours,…

I normally put all of my drives in single master mode anyway if its the only drive on that IDE channel. But with the WD 120gb HDD in my Beige G3 AIO i could have the drive set in M…

Indeed...I remember a couple of years ago when I was putting one of their drives into my Performa, how I had to jumper it specially for the Performa, in fact I think it was actuall…

And now you know that WD does it differently (with thought, of course). It's a caveat worthy of the attention of all of the enlisted here. de

All fixed...turns out the drive had to be set to single drive...works fine now

The early Newtons did not need a special dongle, just a regular mini din9 or whatever serial cable(like ones the back of your Macs) With my OMP and old 68k machines I was connecti…

Indeed I have! But all I get is a blinking question mark :-/

did u set the startup disk to the panther partition?

So, about 5 years late, my iMac 333 is finally running Panther! However...there is a slight (big) problem.... The internal 24x notebook CD-ROM drive, well, lets just say its se…

The hard disk had been upgraded at some stage in the past an was not touching its heatsink. Click to expand... Yeah, the hard drive's heat spreader only contacts 12.5 and 17mm …

You need the special dongle that came with the Newton originally (if this is the same setup as the 2000) without it , no chance.

I think a Xircom will be the solution here. Its just a small device that offers two serial ports and is hooked up to the USB port of Your G3. With this one You not only can use the…

I've got an old Newton Message Pad 110. Model# H0059. I don't have any of the cable that go with it. However, it did function when I originally got it. Anyway, how would I go ab…

Quick update. I opened up the 2400 which was a substantial task. The hard disk had been upgraded at some stage in the past an was not touching its heatsink. Also the thermal past…

I just saw this now and would have loved to see Fantavision become a standard. However, I would have preferred for it to stay in Brøderbund's hands...imagine what a powerful compan…

The flickering is a sign of insufficient voltage. Either the battery is marginal, or the power regulator board has a problem. The crashing could also be due to power instability. …

Using OF commands, after amending the settings for thermal-info I got the fan to turn on straight after booting, by setting them to 01010200 00000000 01010200 00000000. With the o…

IIRC I installed all the .pkg files from here: http://www.unna.org/unnasearch/entry.php?pkey=157 downloaded and installed the wavelan drivers and it eventually worked with a lot …

I've got a 2400c spec'd very similarly to yours. My NUpwr is the 240MHz variety. Anywho, I couldn't say anything for sure about the first issue. It could be that something's aging…
