I have iBook screws, so nothing to worry about in that aspect.

/me clobbers you over the head with my sig

Just an FYI, it's a huge pain in the ass to do sort of drive replacement on a 12" PB.

Just for the hell of it, I decided to look into this problem again. I was FINALLY able to get all of my data off the drive that was in there, when it crapped out. So I stuck it bac…

When I connect it to another machine in SCSI Disk Mode, only the 4GB partition shows up, and I can transfer data to and from it with no problems.If you should try this, and both pa…

Slot load drives, no matter what brand, will still break under heavy usage, especially if often used for writing discs. You don't have much choice with your PowerBook, but normally…

I see absolutely no signs of a 6 GB hard drive limit. I'm using a 40 GB hard drive (Apple ROMed) in mine. Click to expand... There is a 4GB limit for SCSI Disk Mode...if you ha…

These upgrade cards, their speeds, the differences between them, etc. is probably the most well documented of the powerbook upgrades out there. Compares Sonnet's upgrade cards: h…

I agree about the Pioneer drives. I've never had bad luck with one, either personally or in the field.

Interesting. Is there an objective, side-by-side analysis of 1400 upgrade cards that show performance, heat, and power impacts? I've also got a 333 MHz Sonnet card that I bought …

I know this is a bit off topic, but the 233 Vimage G3 upgrade, IMHO, is not worth the effort. It runs too hot and bleeds the battery. All the best. Click to expand... The batt…

Sometimes it can be quirky. So some restarts. Make sure TCP/IP is set to your WAVELAN card, and that you are connecting via DCHP. Set AppleTalk to infrared just to mitigate any …

Well, I decided to import the "lost" posts last night. At first, I wasn't going to bother because I thought it was only 300 or less posts, but after I ran an SQL query to compare t…

Try here: http://www.ppcmla.com/downloads/VPower_Vimage_PB.img.sea I stuffed up my installer disk image. I haven't tested the .sea file, but if everything worked as it should (D…

Sorry, should have stated the G3 upgrade. Good to know though that it will work regardless while I hunt down online drivers. This shall be my next project.

The driver is required to activate the L2 cache. Otherwise, the CPU module will work fine. A G3 without cache is virtually the same thing as a 603e. I have that same processor u…

Driver for the hard drive or the G3 upgrade? I see absolutely no signs of a 6 GB hard drive limit. I'm using a 40 GB hard drive (Apple ROMed) in mine. As for the G3 upgrade, I've…

Nice. But what we really need is a USENET gateway to 68kmla.org.

I spent quite a bit of time last night and this morning improving the Usenet post-indexing system. Before, it wasn't always grouping posts into their correct thread, and instead wa…

Ok, I took time today to look at that. I installed Airport Software 2.0.4 (I had 1.2 installed, that came with OS 9.2.2). Now it kinda works better: I can connect to my network us…
