Subject: PDS card hangs System 7.1 at Welcome Screen ?
Organization: Indiana University
Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1993 16:42:05 GMT


After installing a Micron Xceed30 8-bit video card in my SE/30, my machine
hangs at the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen at boot up.

If I boot from a System 6.05 or 4.1 floppy, all is well. If I boot from a 
7.1 floppy, or from a freshly Installed 71 on the HD, same hang.. I don't
have 7.0.1 handy. Is 7.1 that bad with peripherals ?

If I use the minidebugger during the hang, I get "bad F-line".

I left it hung for a few hours and it didn't resume. 

Can the mere presence of a card in the PDS alter the boot procedure ? The 
Xceed card does not have any monitor connected at this time.


(Just to further confuse the issue.... After I installed the card, the machine
rebooted normally the first time from 7.1 on the HD. Then I added the card
software and the problem started. I have since removed the cdev and no go)


Thanks for the help,

Jim

If your Mac has the capability, do it with a startup quicktime movie; you get
sound and picts at the same time. YOu can also make all the picts the same if
you want juxt one pict (and not many picts).

I don't know how to randomize quicktime startup movies. Also, I haven't seen
Randomizer for a long time. Does it work with system 7.

This sounds very interesting. Unfourtunately I can't get any substantial
information from this release.

If ColorSync is just consisting of software, how is it able to match different
monitors and different output devices with each other?

To callibrate a monitor I usually have to use some sort of instruments
(i.e. hardware) which measures the colours displayed on the monitor and
the coulours printed on film or paper. There is also the famous BLUT
(Brain LUT) which is the user's way to "see" the colours on the monitor.

So have do we intepret this "industry standard" provided by Apple?

Is there anyone out there who knows what ColorSync is?

I don't think this is correct.  I thought that the system picks the correct
enabler.  This would make sense because otherwise it would be impossible to
have a disk that would boot on different machines.

Yes, but you have to buy one which is made for this. You will also need
a case cracker, and wrench, and some good instructions.
And be careful. Most local dealers will seal you a drive and install it

Why do you want floppy icons to appear near the Trash?  Is it because
you'd find it easier to eject by dragging them over the Trash icon?  Why
not just relocate the Trash below your Hard Disk icon at the top right
hand side of your screen, then when you insert floppies they will appear
under the Trash. Don't forget to tidy up your desktop. This is a great
tip for people (like me) who use big monitors.

I have an old Sun 60Mb tape drive which uses a SCSI-QIC?? interface card 
and an Archive
tape drive. I tried using Retrospect 1.3 but it fails to find a tape drive 
on the bus
that it understands. Does it do some sort of SCSI inquiry to determine the 
drive type
and then uses an appropriate driver ? How can I convince Retrospect that 
there is a
taep drive at a specified address ? BTW I've used SCSIProbe 3.4 to 
determine that there
is some sort of SCSI device at the nominated address (even though it can't 
determine 
what it is ). Is there some other utility that I can use to backup my hard

If I had to guess I would say your problem is not allocating enough
memory to your application (click on icon, then get information).
Unlike sys 6, sys 7 will not automatically expand your application
to use all the memory available. Another common problem is a crash
when trying to save to disk. If your application says it needs 300K
to run, it means just that. Printing and saving to disk require
more space (most of the time).

The only other possible thing I have noticed is that sometimes I
get a similar message from our Laserwriter IIg which is hooked
up to our Ethernet. If the printer is left on for a long time without
being used, it seems to need to reset itself before printing. The
message we get is that there is not enough memory in the printer
to handle the document. This is not the real problem when printing
a half page of text on a 5 meg printer. I usually have to reset it
from software or go upstairs and turn it off. Any comments on this 
would be welcome.

  It's probably because SuperClock was designed for the batteries in the PB
100 through the PB 180, and not the Duos.  The duos use a different battery
technology,  and I would bet that SuperClock does not know about it. 
  Best thing to do is turn the battery indicator in SuperClock off, and put
an alias of the Apple Battery DA in your Startup Items folder, so it is on
the desktop all of the time.

Each file in the Font folder is really an open file, and those are what
are being limited.  You should be able to combine fonts within font
suitcases to access as many of them as you like without exceeding the
128 font file limit.
