Since Christmas , I have been steadily upgrading my BGEDT 233 Rev. A G3 .
I began with maxing the RAM to 768 MB ( 3 - 256's From OWC ), a 400 MHZ copper Motorola Ziff with 1 MB BSC, an ASOUND 4 port USB Hub , a two port USB PCI card, Netgear 314 Router, Surfboard cable modem, Sandisk flash card reader, Sony CRX 120E ATA CD-RW, Epson 777 USB printer, Cannon 656U USB scanner, Radeon 32 MB video card, Proview 17 " VGA monitor, and a Logitec two button - wheel mouse. All the while, OSX has been steadily upgrading as well. I upgraded all the way to 10.1.4 and to 9.2.2 for Classic. For VPC I am using vers. 5 and W/98. Now here is where my problems began. I have another BGEDT . It is a stock 266 Rev C. with 768 MB RAM. Since my rev. A can only use one HD per Bus, I decided to take the 20 gig ATA HD from the 233 and put it in the 266 and along with it also put a 6 GB ATA in there , too and put a clearance sale Maxtor ATA 60 GB HD in the 233 / 400. I did a clean install of 10.1 and upgraded to 10.1.4 on the 233 with the 60 gig . Test fired it and everything was great. could burn CD's , print nice looking pages and photo's, download right off my camera's flash card, and etc. Then I removed the CD and put the 20 gig back in to copy some of my files directly to the 60. I copied my User folder from the 20 over to the 60 thinking it would save time with registrations , passwords, accounts and etc. I didn't realize that the User / Owner names were not identical until I had copied it already. Is there a way to recover from this without having to do another complete clean install ? Andy3 -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
