I have tried that experiment and you will just get a gray screen everytime. on the 230 also when changing it around 230-280 same thing. The connector also needs to be tweeked as the pins have slightly different spacing on the boards i have. Quick one whilst you are on . the pcmcia cage for the 1400 the 2 rows of connector pins that connect it to the motherboard How do you tell pin 1. I am trying to use it connected to a 2300 board via and adapter to give me compact flash exchange. (its a bit tricky) speak later Vicki -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
