Hi All,

Now I have found Classilla for browsing, I am making an effort to get a several
G3's and G4's back into service. The problem is obtaining OS 9.2.1 as a
download. I have 9.1 and 9.2.2 but cannot find a download site that has 9.2.1 (a
site I would use, anyway!). Can anybody help please.

Thanks

John

I just found OS 9.2.1 listed for sale on Amazon.com in US--you might try there
or on your AU Amazon.

I'm afraid 9.2.1 is a purchase point for the Mac OS. If you want it legally
you'll need to purchase it. Not as in demand as 9 or 9.1, but you can get the
disk on eBay.

NO! The purchase point was 9.04. Every update after 9.04 was free from
Apple, which includes 9.1, 9.2.1, and 9.2.2. Here are the FREE updates:

U R correct. I was thinking full install and not update.

Nope, I was wrong.

I said 9.04, but it was actually 9.0, even 9.04 was a free update.

Hi All,

Thanks for the OS 9 replies. I now have 2 new copies of OS 9.2.1 CD's. They both
are called upgrades. I have installed this software on a G3 PowerBook
(Wallstreet).

This was not an easy process as I was hoping the Ritmo PCMCIA CCM-35 I have that
has two Firewire and two USB ports would allow connection of an external USB CD
drive as there is no CD Drive resident in the machine (Floppy only). With the
original OS 9.1 installed a PCMCIA device was recognised but was not
specifically the CCM-35. I had to rig a messy SCSI setup to load the OS 9.2.1
with an elderly Apple CD. Booting produced the SCSI symbol floating across the
screen but would not load. Terminating or unterminating made no difference. In
desperation I added another external SCSI CD drive in the SCSI loop. This drive
was not Apple and would not mount but it somehow made the Apple CD operate
normally. After loading the OS 9.2.1 upgrade the PCMCIA device is no longer
recognised at all.

My question is about this Ritmo device. It is currently available (new) from
various sites but as I bought mine secondhand without software, does anyone know
of a source for an Apple driver for this device. I have looked extensively on
the WEB without success.

Thanks

John Dear

The SCSI symbol floating across the screen means you have the wrong
SCSI cable (or if it has mode switch on it, it's set incorrectly). The
computer is going into SCSI disk mode, where it thinks it is a SCSI
hard disk.

I'd forget trying to make Ritmo work.  Go to eBay and find one of the CD/DVD
drives built for Wallstreet-Pismo era Powerbooks.  There are a number of "parts"
machines for sale and several CD/DVD drives that will slip right into the slot
of your Wallstreet machine.

Hi All,

Thanks for the replies. When I bought the Wallstreet, I also bought a Pismo
(meaning they came together). The Pismo had a CD drive and the Wallstreet had
Floppy Drive in the right hand slot. I knew nothing about these machines but
assumed the batteries and drives were interchangeable as externally, they looked
identical. Of course I was wrong. To get the Wallstreet working when I first got
it was a challenge as the SCSI port would not work to boot the machine (as
suggested). I loaded the OS 9.1 using a PCMCIA Card with a 512MB Compact Flash
Memory Card loaded from a Power Mac. I was amazed that it worked. However the
same trick would not work with the Pismo.

I don't think I can justify buying a CD drive for the Wallstreet as freight to
Australia would make it quite expensive. Both machines work extremely well and I
enjoy their keyboards so much more than the various PC Laptops I use.

Last question. Is it worth installing the OS 9.2.2 upgrade (I have downloaded it
from Apple)? Meaning is it a significant upgrade that really makes machines work
better.

Thanks

John Dear

Hi everybody:

I just got an old and working ADB trackball, the Logitech Trackman Marble, M/N
T-AH11, P/N 804219-0000, but there were no drivers with it.

I was wondering if anyone on this group might have used one of these and have
the drivers at hand that he or she could share with me.

Thanks in advance,

Ismael Ramírez

Hi again:

Just to let you know that I found the driver on the net: MouseKey™ 2.0.

Hello folks,

I just joined the Group having found some ancient driver installers in my
archives. I uploaded one but now Yahoo is telling me "The disk space allotted
for this community is not big enough for your file." The file is 545K in size.

Have we run out of space?

Walter

I don't know about this? The best, most complete version 5.1.6 was
withdrawn by Microsoft as the result of losing a lawsuit. The final
MacOS only version 5.1.7 had some functionality removed as a result of
the lost lawsuit. I know this is a stupid moot point because anyone
still using MacOS would likely have to use a more modern browser than
this old MS Internet Explorer, but I don't think v.5.1.6 is easily
available elsewhere? If you look on "mac.oldapps.com" they skip v.
5.1.6 completely which I'm almost certain is a result of the lawsuit.

Shouting won't help persuade others to assist you. However I did some searching
and failed to locate an OSX driver for this card. All the old ATI links are dead
and I cannot find OSX drivers on ATI's current support site for this card. Have
you tried simply installing it and seeing if it's recognised?

You'll need to flash the ROM (BIOS) of the card with a PPC Mac ROM. If
such a ROM is available for your card it can likely be found at:
<http://themacelite.wikidot.com/>

There are normally no other drivers or software necessary for Radeon
cards, although you'll likely need to tape or fix the "Pins 3 & 11"
issue. See this:

Hello all,

I am re-configuring some of my older computers and have come across a snag with
some of the drivers I have downloaded. Some of the files I have downloaded are
corrupt and I was hopeful that individuals on this forum might have copies
archived or suggestions as to where I can find these drivers. I have listed the
corrupt files below.

* VideoVision Studio Nubus - the DigitalVideoUtilities.smi.hqx file which
contains the Digital Video Utilities disk.
* Reply's Intel PCI Dos On Mac - the Disk5intelpci.smi.hqx file which contains
video drivers for Win 95.
* Reply's AMD PCI Don on Mac - CD1.smi.hqx file which contains PC Utilities v1.0
* Reply's AMD PCI Don on Mac - CD2.smi.hqx file which contains Mac OS System 7.5
Update 2.0. I don't know if this contains additional files for Dos on Mac of if
the Apple's Standard System 7.5 Update 2.0 is the same.
* Sonnet Technologies Encore G3 card - the sonnetcev231.hqx file which contains
the drivers for the Encore G3 card.
* Some of the files listed under the Orange Micro Nubus PC link are damaged.
Specifically, the files are for OrangePC 300 and include:
OrangePC nb DOS/Windows Setup Disk 1 (v1.0.2)-- opcnbdw1102.bin
OrangePC nb DOS/Windows Setup Disk 3-- opcnbdw3102.bin

Any help with these various files would be greatly appreciated. I still love
using the older Mac technology from the early 90s. Brings back a lot of great
memories. Thanks.

-Andy

No links came through, only the text below. Are you certain they're
corrupt? Not just archived with older software, i.e. the format isn't
compatible with the newer version. If you provide a link perhaps I can
tell you for sure what the situation is.

  Jamie Kahn Genet

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

Hi Jamie,

Thanks for the reply. The majority of the files I am looking for were at one
time posted on the macdrivermuseum.net web site. I am fairly certain the files
are corrupt, as an example the file found at:
http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/video/knighttech/DiskImages/DosOnMac/IntelPCI/Dis\
k5.smi.bin.hqx - this file shows as zero k, possibly an incomplete upload. The
OrangePC files are similar as they were partially downloaded from the original
website and thus incomplete.

If it is helpful, here are the download links. Some of the files are incomplete
or zero k, others are missing:

I have performed internet searches for these files, but have had no luck finding
them elsewhere. Let me know your thoughts.

Have you tried the Wayback Machine <http://archive.org/web/web.php>??

Sometimes you can be lucky, depends what was archived from each site.

Yeah, you're right -
http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/video/knighttech/DiskImages/DosOnMac/IntelPCI/
itself shows the Disk5.smi.bin.hqx file is zero KB on the server, and
my browser has nothing to download when I try anyway. Bummer. Somebody
screwed up at some stage.

Best of luck :-)
