Thanks for the welcome, and thanks for the advice, I shall keep my eyes open for g3 cards on ebay uk. Any real difference between the various makes?
I've been trying to network the PowerWave with an XP box. I though to start with I'd just get the two computers in a position where they could share files. But I don't really know what I'm doing. I've got them both connected via Ethernet with a crossover cable, and on XP I get an icon on the start bar telling me that there is a local area connection with limited connectivity. File sharing is on with both computers, and as far as I am aware I configured a TCP/IP connection on the Mac side correctly. I know the IPs of both machines, but am unable to ping them from each other. I messed about with an AppleTalk control panel as well - but I guess I don't need this if I'm trying to configure a TCP/IP connection (???) The only other lead the net could turn up, was something about a program called Dave - is this necessary? Oh, and one more thing :-) I want to get another SCSI hard drive for the Powerwave, so I can boot Fedora of one and OS9 of the other. Are macs picky about drives? I know what I'm doing with SCSI - the controller is a 50-pin Fast SCSI as far as I am aware....also is the mac choosy about CD-ROMs? I heard something about an Apple ROM, but I am really green when it comes to Macs.... Many many thanks in advance, Regards, Adam __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
