In disk utility, try selecting the drive itsself, and clicking mount!

Freudling: The encouragement is appreciated. I did not try the tactic of formatting and software installation prior to putting the IDE-CF adapter and card in the machine. No doubt…

Hi all and many thanks for the replies! Actually I still didn't take the time to further investigate those drives. And I just put the IIgs back on its shelf this morning, to make …

The G3/400 uprade is probably the second best thing that can happen to any PB1400, just after being equipped with a TFT screen. If asked to spend 200 bucks to pimp a 1400c, I woul…

Just in case I am keeping it plugged in without the main battery. This evening will be 24 hours, but I'm suspecting it's really dead.

did u have any joy?

Those beige G3 drives had issues when new,they have under run problems. just replace the Cd drive with something better. My mad dog works great. [] ]'>

Checked my website, and here is what it says: Yes. 4 upgrade chips were made for the 500 series PowerBooks. Newer Technologies made 3 upgrade chips for the 500 series PowerBooks (…

beachycove: Giving up so soon? I have installed a CF Card in a 5300ce and a 1400c with the addonics CF-ATA adapter and after 6 months of use on each, no problems. Now, I know th…

Thx

Makes sense to me... Can't put a price on the nostalgia we get from using old Apple gear. Riddle me this... does it make sense for me to occasionally do book research on my PowerB…

Love my mint 5300ce... threw a CF Card in there for an internal hard drive. Works great, and has a double capacity battery that lasts for about 5 hours, and I have a flush wifi ca…

I stand corrected. WPC54GS, not WRT54GS. My bad. I guess I was wrong about assuming OS9 compatiblity. Good luck!

Linksys WRT54GS / WRT54G v1 / use the Broadcom chipset / It ought to be recognized reasonably well in OS9 because it will be mistaken as an Airport card. Click to expand... The…

That Linksys device is a router, not a card. Also, the original Airport cards used chips made by Lucent/Agere, not Broadcom. They are known in the wireless biz as the Hermes chips…

Great discussion. I wrote these specs years ago... they might come in handy (check the GLOD solution there, although looks like you already tried it). Also, like at links at bott…

WRT??? If I'm not mistaken, that is a router and not a card (my router is a WRT54G v2)

The best one that I know will work is the Linksys WRT54GS (the S is for Speedboost). Also the Linksys WRT54G v1 will work. I do not know about version two. Both of these Wireless G…

If you're happy to settle for 802.11b, rather than 802.11g, an ORiNOCO card will work well on there, and even allow you to use the standard Apple AirPort software.

I think the Sonnet Aria Extreme card can do both if I'm not mistaken. It's kinda hard to find, but most used mac computer sites have it http://www.powermax.com/parts/show/c39916

Very interesting...I suppose if the voltage is correct it may work though. I know this is somewhat off-topic, but since car batteries have been brought up, does anyone know of a g…
