i love my starmax, its the 5500 even. but back on topic, if you are getting kps on install, its a hardware problem. in fact i just went though this. turns out it was a bad ram module. the new one i just got infact. sent it back, got another, and all is well. well, if it were me, i'd rig...

due to a long, and sad, story, i had to get a new cell phone. so i got a motorazr v3. yes its a older model, but it was listed on apple's site as isync-able. well, i got it to pair with the mac no problem, and it even copied my contacts with numbers over, as well as my calendar. but as its...

i'd get it if i were you. if the drive isn't listed as a dual layer, then its not. i don't think they put them in the macbooks anyway. and the core2duo is a much better cpu, and it needs the extra l2cache. with a 2gig chip, 1gig ram and super drive, that macbook is way worth 600. if we had...

with the correct trays, you can get 6 in the bad boy. i've had up to 3 in mine. then i got one really big one, and consolidated. now i need to start looking for another really big one. all this tvring with my eyetv fills the drive up fast... anywho, owc has a 2gig g4 cpu upgrade, and if its...

nope, it will not run system 7. the oldest it can run is 9.1. best to stick with os x on that one. but you can run system 7 in an emulator.

yes, l2 cache makes a difference. but are they the same kind of cpus? the new macbooks will always have better specs, but then they have newer hardware too.

any major name brand basic printer will work with macs, but there are very few aio printers that work with macs. and the ones that do are couple 100usd. i prefer epson printers myself, and can generally find several for under 70usd. a c88 is a nice printer for basic jobs. i got mu r220 for...

graphic converter will open and edit and save files without spending any money. you just get a diag box count down at the beginning before the app finishes loading. its the best all around mac image app there is.

i like daz|studio. and then there's bryce too.

only that as far as i know, you can't get vpc7 new any more. but it was the only was to run windows on macs for a while.

i followed google's instructions to the "t" and al has been well with apple's mail and my gmail account. 1st thing i'd do is go back to google's how-to and redo all the steps. make sure you have set gmail up to allow mail to work with it too.

which os?

sounds like the finder is hosed, which is why you have some menu items, and the dock works, but can't even use a different user as that is part of the finder. looks like you'll have to do as nix says and archive and install.

i use the http plugin with my hotmail, and am able to get my mail. there are times that mail loses connection, but so does msn messenger. of course, i'm had a hotmail account for almost a decade now, so i've been grandfathered in to all this new plus stuff.

dude, shut it down, and don't turn it on till you get a new hard drive. then install the new drive, download carbon clone copier and copy your hard drive over before it dies for good.

so you mean i have to wait till next year to upgrade?!?

i have seen some places sell that model, with less upgrades, or close to 500usd. i personally wouldn't pay more than 200usd, but thats because i have a nicely upgraded one now. if i didn't have a g4, then i could see myself paying about 350usd for it.

i noticed that as well. that and his 1st mac was a mini in 1995... i use both a mac and win xp pc at home. mac for everything but games. but i do have to use windows at work, so i get my daily dose, and am able to help just about everyone with their computer needs on the side.

owc has a usb solution that costs about 30usd. and its wireless-g instead of wireless-b like the airport card you want, so it'll be faster.

it is possible, if done correctly. even apple's support site has the instructions. you could of also created a new user and then deleted the old one. as for the cds that came with the ibook, if you used the restore cds, it should of set it back to factory new specs for the os, and then all...
