Hello,
I hope I'm still contacting the right group. I recently
purchased a PowerMac G3 Minitower-300 mhz and 4 GB drive with 128 mb
of memory from an Apple club member. It was used by National
Geographic and has all kinds of stuff on it I don't need. What it
doesn't appear to have is TCP/IP "ppp" setup. It shows "only
"ethernet " and "Apple Talk " neither of which I need. How do I get
the "ppp "?
Secondly, I have a strange problem. I have a 9GB external
drive that has my complete system on it that I wanted to bring up on
my G3. But, the computer doesn't recognize it. I hooked up a 2 GB
external drive that I used before, and the computer recognized it
fine. Does anyone know why this is happening?
When I tried to install my ISP information, I got a note that
said I couldn't be connected because "open transport" was not
installed. But, according to the system profiler it is.
If I can solve these three problems, I should be in good
shape. The computer works fast, which is what I wanted.
Thanks
Wilton
