Hardware / Will a SCSI DVD drive work with my PB?
February 25, 2008, 21:13 |
editingeditingediting You could backup the 1400 to a hfs+ hd in a newer mac via ethernet. I did it with pcmcia wlan in my 1400. |

Hardware / Will a SCSI DVD drive work with my PB?
February 25, 2008, 21:02 |
I think it will work as a cdr-drive only. I had an internal dvd-drive in a 7500, which worked that way. A good drive database for compatibility: http://forums.xlr8yourmac.com/drivedb/search.drivedb.lasso |

Operating System / Re: oh...sorry

Quote from: "pinkclouds" i didn't know that too may posts are bothering this site.. It's not about the amount of postings, but it would have been easier to follow your progress, if you could have kept it all under one headlining. Congrat for making the 520c to run again, anyway. Nice job! |

Software / Internet Explorer 5.5
February 21, 2008, 17:32 |
Quote from: "Minimalist" I actually don't recall where I downloaded it from. It was most likely from a Hotline server and I'm wanting to say the preterhuman server, but I can't be certain without actually going to look for it. There are traces, like old articles, of IE 5.5 in the Web, but no links for downloading it. It would be fun to try this curious version. Does the 5.5 run without the AM, and will you make it available from your forthcoming server? |

Operating System / how can i install 19 system7 SMi files?
February 21, 2008, 17:18 |
Well done, you're nearly there! Try the clean install next, as you said. Incase you run into some problems, use the MBP and your four floppies to install. (Rotate your floppies by using the first floppy for the fifth file also etc.) I've always done installations with cds, but I quess there's a disktool included in the first file/floppy. Start from the first floppy by pressing CMD-OPT-SHIFT-DEL when booting and the 520 should start from the floppy and you could format the HD before doing a fresh install. Just a reminder; formatting do wipe EVERYTHING of the HD! It would be easier to follow your saga, if you wouldn't make a new post for every new how-to install posting, but rather continue an older one, please. |

-517 needs the AM, and I have thought it to be the last for the Classic -the last for X is 523 I only have found news from the summer of 2000 of the IE 5.5 for Mac, from where did you downloaded it? |

Operating System / connecting X's DVDRom to 520c? possible?
February 20, 2008, 17:06 |
Does the 520c work at the moment? If you have a browser installed, you could download 7.5.3, write floppies and do a clean install from those! I'm quessing that while the OS is PigLatin now, a browser would still render pages in a normal fashion? |

Operating System / connecting X's DVDRom to 520c? possible?
February 20, 2008, 16:56 |
Hi! Did I understand it right, that you have the Korean OS in a cd? To either use that, or to use the free 7.5.3/7.5.5 your best bet is to buy a scsi cd-drive. Choosing any other media, like usb floppy drive for the MacBook Pro (Does 10.5 even support floppies?) or buying an usb and a scsi Zip drives would not be very practical. Not much point to buy an OS in floppies either. Same goes with all the ethernet stuff if the 520c is in an unreadable state right now. The only other option I can think of, is if someone knows a way to undo your upgrade blindfolded :grin: Having a cd-drive would ease your life afterwards, too. |

Software / Can't
February 19, 2008, 15:44 |
It's easy for yourself to test if the AM slows down or give you other problems in your Mac, with the apps you are using. Run it with and then without the AM, that's all there is to do. It's easy to take it out of your OS, if you decide against using it. No harm done. There is no such thing as the best OS, app or computer. Everything is in oneway or another a compromise. If something work for you, be happy and use it. |

Software / Want to try Linux
February 10, 2008, 09:54 |
If you have an access to any pc (in a library, at work) you should try Puppy Linux Distribution first before playing with your mac, just to see if you like a Linux OS. It will load itself into a pc's RAM from a cd or USB-stick, and it will not touch the HD at all, making the try-out very safe. The whole size of the distro is under 100MB with apps and a pc with 256MB of RAM will be sufficient to run it well. Puppy transforms an USB-stick into world's smallest portable pc! Someone made it to run in an Intel Mac too. |

You're not that far off with using onions. Smaller amount of those will give a dog anemia, and a large quantity will start an internal hemorrage and the dog will die. Just keep the dog and dump the wife, that'll be a much better solution. |

Software / ICeTEa Extension?
January 27, 2008, 09:37 |
Quote from http://www.xoverload.com/extensionoverload/extension/ei.htm "This system extension patches the MacOS's built-in text editing code, TextEdit, so that it supports command-clicking of URLs. This means that you can command click URLs in any application that uses TextEdit to edit text. This includes such common programs as Eudora and SimpleText. If you're running any version of the Mac OS past OS 8 you don't need the ICeTEa extension. Double clicking on a URL will automatically launch your browser and take you to the page in question." |

Hardware / Powerbook 1400c--sale price
January 11, 2008, 20:47 |
For that price you should expect to have one with the 166mhz cpu, the c screen, at least 48MB of RAM, a cd drive and an AC power supply but a dead battery. A 1400 is quite common in Ebay, so wait for a better deal and check the s&h beforehand to avoid an unpleasant surprise. |
