    He just posted that he has a Sonnet ATA133 - that would be a controller card.

    New HD not bootable in iMac (revB)

    On the original iMac, as on the Beige G3, OS X MUST be installed completely WITHIN the first 8 GB of the hard drive. So the OS X partition has to be the first partition, because 3 + 5 = 8. Any installation in the second partition is not WITHIN the first 8 GB. I had to partition my 80 GB...

    Computer Won't Boot After 10.2.5 Update

    Yeah, no kidding. I'm doing the same thing (slowly) but I'm too chicken to reinstall 10.2.5 - I've only gone back to 10.2.4. Oh - dsatterfield - I'm on cable, not 56k. And my machine's stock except for an USB 2.0 pci card and an Acard ATA-66 pci card, both of which worked just fine with no...

    Computer Won't Boot After 10.2.5 Update

    kschneider - I had the same problem on a B&W 350, but my grey Apple turned into a grey international "no" symbol after a minute or so. I did an "archive and install" and kept user info (click options after selecting your drive). Then downloaded and installed the 10.2.4 update. All is well now...

    10.2.5

    Yep. So far, so good - as fast or faster than 10.2.4, had hardly any skewed permissions to fix - all is well (:knocking on wood:)

    Firewire gone

    Had the firewire go out at work on our "new" AGP graphics 450 MHz - couldn't see the LaCie CDRW no matter what cable or what port I plugged it in to (even the one on the mobo). Reinstalled 9.2.2 and 10.2.4 and everything was fine, but couldn't see it for anything until I did that. Have no...

    Scanner does not work

    Hey, edX: you were right! MagicScan works perfectly in 9.2.2 with the 1220U. I couldn't get it to work on our new (to us) Sawtooth even though it worked on the B&W (I couldn't even boot after I installed VistaScan 3.7.5) so I tried MagicScan with the 1220U extension from VistaScan - works...

    10.2.4 and slow burning superdrive

    From Apple (http://www.apple.com/hardware/superdrive/): Will this update enable my 2x SuperDrive to write at a higher speed? This update enables you to read from and write to the new media, but it does not increase the speed of the drive. In fact, the updated 2x SuperDrive writes to this...

    Have you upgraded your firmware to the latest version? I seem to remember some superdrive issue that's resolved by an update...

    G3 266 memory upgrade

    They're probably not seated properly - take 'em all out and put them back in, making sure both sides snap into place. I have 768 MB in my Beige G3/300 Desktop (overclocked to 333) and all is fine.

    Scanner does not work

    From the umax.co website: But if you think it works with the 1220U, I'll try it!

    Scanner does not work

    I had to attempt to dl them 3 or 4 times - finally worked from the UK site. Not sure what's up with their server, but it does work eventually. Did 3.7.5 work for you?

    Scanner does not work

    Go to www.umax.co.uk - they have the latest driver, which is 3.7.5 - it works fine with 9.2.2 and the 1220U (I use both at work).

    Internal CDR-CDRW Advice

    I installed a Lite-On CD-RW in my Beige G3 desktop 6 months ago - disc burning is fully supported, as is booting, and it's been trouble-free.

    You should be able to get a Windows driver for the deskjet 995c here: http://h20015.www2.hp.com/en/softwareCategory.jhtml?lc=en&pagetype=software&prodId=hpdeskjet934006&sw_lang=en then, when you install the driver, tell windows it's a networked printer, and give it the address info by finding...

    how do i get a windows machine to print through samba to my mac printer

    Try this from www.xlr8yourmac.com: 1. Open Terminal.app. You need super-user privileges (su root or sudo, not discussed here) to perform the following steps. 2. We need to place a symbolic link to the SMB printer spooling module that ships with Jaguar. I'm baffled as to why...
