I recently bought a B&W which basically runs well. But I am puzzled
about a few things. Can you help?
1. CD Drawer. I can't find any keyboard combo that will OPEN this
door, Command-E will close it. The only way I've found to open it is
by pressing the silver button on the door quite hard and often that
takes repeated pressings. The KB I'm using is a new Apple USB, black,
smaller than the old standard Apple issue, looks like one that came
with early iMacs.
As far as I know u have to press the button, sorry.
2. Burning. I'm running OS 922. Is there any system software for CD
burning? (I can't locate it.) Would Toast 6 work?
If it does nto laod it by default then you may need to grab a new extension.
It should be in apple menu --> control panels -> CD burning. Or applications
--> burning
3. Sleep. The sleep dialog seems to put the system to bye byes OK
(the monitor goes black and the HD sounds like it winding down.) But
the fan in the B&W does not seem to go off; I've left it in sleep
mode for several hours but the fan has never gone off and I think
that it shouldn't take that long to cool down.
Neither does mine
4, Memory. I put in two sticks of PC133 RAM 256k apiece. However the
Mac only recognizes 32k from each of these. The original RAM in there
is a 128k PC133 and it registers the full amount. Anything I can do
here?
The ram is the incorrect density, You need to make sure that you get the
proper density. This comes straight from crucial when looking for RAM:
Module Details:
* Module Size: 256MB
* Package: 168-pin DIMM
* Feature: SDRAM, PC100
* Configuration: 32Meg x 64
* DIMM Type:
* Error Checking: Non-parity
* Speed: 100
* SDRAM Timings: CL=2
* Specs: SDRAM, PC100 . CL=2 . Unbuffered . Non-parity . 100MHz . 3.3V .
32Meg x 64
So basically RAM needs to meet those specs. Crucial.com is selling 256MB
sticks for $65.
Thanks for all suggestions
