There's no documentation that I know of, either--he gave me the init sometime last February, tho it was a beta version at that time.

Also not worth the bother to replace analog board, warranty or otherwise. C1 runs so hot it fails in a year if you leave the machine on. The heat stress also causes other problems in that corner of the board. This is the sole reason for the 3 month warranty, not greed or other sillyness. Best solution I have found is 4 parallel 1uF mil spec ceramics. They are about the size of a finger nail and not much thicker. 4 soldered to a piece of Vero board make a package about suger cube size.

Please help!! I work in an Apple computer lab at Central Connecticut State University, and lately we've been having an outbreak of viruses (nVir A). I figured it out by using Disinfectant Ver. 1.1. What should I do?? It is a public lab, so people are in and out all the time some with their own disks. We have all Mac SE's with 20 meg HD hooked up through appletalk. I tried using gatekeeper, but programs such as Excel would not work. I tried initializing all the hard drives, and replacing them with the original software, but the viruses keep coming back. Also some of the people come in with their own software that could be infected. Any information on how I can control this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Reuveni >about their lack of problems with the DeskWriter illustrate my point: >they all have at least 2.5 megs of RAM. My complaint is that although >Apple still markets most of its machines with 1 meg, more and more you >need extra RAM for minimal functioning... I worked on the DeskWriter driver and would like to comment on the problems that Paul is having. I too have a Mac 512KE upgraded to 1 Meg RAM. But, unlike Paul, I haven't had any problems with my DeskWriter. Why haven't I had problems? Because I know that with only 1 Meg of RAM, I can't have all of the bells and whistles installed (INITS), run large applications, and use a DeskWriter all at the same time without running into a RAM shortage. One Meg of RAM used to be enough for the "Dream System", but it isn't anymore. You can blame the DeskWriter, you can blame the INITs, you can blame Apple's growing system requirements, and you can blame the application writers. The fact remains that in order to do more and fancier stuff with your Mac, like use the latest version of applications (after all, Word went from 350K to 670K when it went from 3.0X to version 4.0) and use a 300 DPI QuickDraw based printer with outline fonts and use memory hungary INIT's, you may need to add more RAM. If you're unlucky, like me (a 512KE upgraded to 1 Meg), it isn't cheap to add more RAM. But, even with 1 Meg, I am still running Word 4.0 which is a GIANT application, with no problems. Printing is still slower since Word leaves precious little RAM left for the DeskWriter driver but I still have reasonable performance (barely) on my 17 page document. However, Word 4.0 is starting to stretch the limits of what will work on a DeskWriter in 1 Meg of RAM. It's fairly well known that PageMaker, FullWrite, Full Impact, and some other large applications can have problems running in only 1 Meg (especially if you want you're INIT's); unfortnately, I think that Word 4.0 has entered the realm of the BIG application. DeskWriter requires about 250K of RAM while printing using the outline fonts (less is required if not using "high quality" outline fonts). Even Word 4.0 at 670K wouldn't have any problems if it purged more of it's code resources during printing as recomended by Apple. You're comment about the DeskWriter manual not suggesting how to conserve RAM isn't true. In Chapter 5 "Maximizing Printer Performance" you are instructed on ways to save RAM (setting RAM cache, removing INITs etc..) among other things. It doesn't have all the answers, but it has a lot of useful information.

I've seen the procPtr type, but so far that's only been useful for passing procedure addresses to system routines. What I really need is the ability to "late-bind" a procedure call, so that I can change the actual procedure called on the fly. Does LightSpeed Pascal 1.1 support this feature, or should I go looking elsewhere? (I suppose I could hack it together in assembly language, but that's not a desired option at this time.)

Greetings! I got a question that would like to put to the net to see if there is an an answer/explanation to what happened. When I came into work this morning (8 Nov) my boss brought to my attention that all was not right with our IIx. When asked, he said that when the IIx was restarted, it would show the Happy Mac, then recycle back to the screen with the 'question mark disk.' He also told me that he had performed a work-around by booting off of a floppy, moved the system and finder out of the System folder, the restored from these files from our back-ups (thank goodness we did that recently! *whew* <grin>). I checked and everything was ok as far as the operation of the Mac goes, but, when I looked at the copy of the corrupted System File, it had grown to over 1.5Meg!!! This is more than double of the usual 600+ kilobytes! So feeling confident that I had nothing to loose by poking an prodding it, I whipped out my copy of ResEdit 1.2 andattempted to open the culprit. But alas, ResEdit made a valient effort but said that it could not open the file and offered a -39 as an excuse. I checked out the System Error Table DA v1.3 by Bill Steinberg and -39 is supposed to be an End Of File error. Now, my questions are this....Wha Happend??? <mystified look> All was fine when I left at 2am the nite before and interrogating my boss and the other employees who were here this morning resulted in much shrugging of shoulders and blank stares. I dont think its viral related (Disinfectant says that the system file is damaged **sarcastic -duh-** :-> ) If anyone would like to see a copy of this file and tell me what went wrong, I would appreciate any input. BTW: I'm running under 6.0.3, and the usual myriad of Inits/Cdevs and can provide a list of these if needed. -=-Michael Farlow X098MF@TAMVM1.BITNET -=- -=-CSC Graphics Lab, Texas A&M U.

What you have to do (or what works for me) is to get a LaserWriter driver in your system folder. Just ask around, they aren't too hard to find. Then when you begin your Word document, go to the Apple menu and select Chooser. Then click on the LaserWriter icon. Got it? This should set up your page to the laserwriter specifications. You won't be able to print it out on the ImageWriter, but you shouldn't have any problem printing it out from the IIcx.

Fromherz <fromherz@ifi.unizh.ch> Subject: PSI 1.0 (1 of 6) PSI 1.0/10-25-1989 Personal System for Information Management and Retrieval OVERVIEW PSI helps with the management and retrieval of information, which may be bibliographic references, addresses, software, CD collec- tions etc. Information is saved in records, in the following called cards; a simple card description language allows to define fields and layout. Descriptors help to annotate the cards and, above all, to quickly retrieve the information. The information of the cards may be exported (listed or printed) in any format. Information may also be imported from data bases (fixed format) or files where the information is ordered by keywords (like Refer). ! PSI is intended to be an application for your personal data. It should be easy to set up and to use. It is comparably small, versatile and useful for a broad range of data. The search by descriptors makes retrieval fast and handy, and the export and import capabilities are quite powerful. ! Documentation with introductions and sample sessions as well as on-line help are available. If you use PSI for the first time, it may be a good idea to load "PSI Help" in PSI (or start PSI by double-clicking on the file "PSI Help") and try the sample sessions while reading this text. Several examples accompany the application to give you an idea about the possibilities of PSI. DISTRIBUTION POLICY Please feel free to copy PSI and give it to other Macintosh users for their evaluation. I retain all rights to this software and its documentation, which may not be sold, either separately or as part of another product, without my written approval. ! PSI is free for personal use. If you decide to use PSI, please send me a post card of your home town. This way, you may even get a free update (only by e-mail or if you pay the transportation, i.e. disk and stamps). ! If you intend to use PSI for commercial business or just want to become a registered user, with the advantage of getting updates and the right to ask for additional functionality, send whatever you think you should pay (the equivalent of about sFr. 20 or $20), just to make sure I don't pay the price for the additional effort (time, postage etc.). PSI is not free for commercial use! Don't forget the post card! If you have questions: I will scan USENET comp.sys.mac for PSI-related messages. You may also send me e- or p-mail.

Now, I am wondering any people over t here can help me with the following questions. First, the backUp facility with RamDisk+: Even though I copy the files which I don't intend to change them in most cases into the RAM disk, I still have to change some of them occasionally, or the syst em automatically create some files in the startup disk(now is in the RAM disk!). My question is: are there any later version of RamDisk+ or other similar soft wares, which, upon shutdown or restart, will automatically check the RAM disk (l ike quitting from most application softwares) to see whether any file has been modified since copied from the real disk; Or any newly created files which has not been saved to the real disk. If any, the system will ask whether you want to save the file to your disk. Wit h such option, I will double my confidence to use the RAM disk. The second question is: the RAM disk seems not compatible with MacroMaker. To illustrate this clearly, the details are described as follows: 1) I am using Mac+ with 2.5 M memory; system v Z-6.0.2; finder v Z-6.0.2; 2) I set the RAM disk size as 1304 K; 3) Without putting the MacroMaker files (MacroMaker, MacroMaker Help and Macros) into the system folder, the startUp process goes successfully. That is, after startUp, the RAM disk (1304 K) has been created with all files in the system fol ders; the startUp disk has been changed to the RAM disk and the floppy disk has been ejected; 4) With the MacroMaker files (as same as above) in the system, the startUp proce ss still goes smoothly and the results are exactly same as those without MacroMa ker files in the system folder. Notice: No any MacroMaker Menu appears in the m enu bar in the whole process. The system starts up just like no any MacroMaker INIT in the system folder; 5) Repeat 4) now. While files in the system folders are being copied into the RAM disk, click the mouse to get the control of RamDisk+. The MacroMaker menu n ow appears in the menu bar! Click Button "Continue" to continue. When file "Ma cros" is being copied, a message comes out: "Sorry, a read error occurred, file skipped". After clicking "OK", the copy process is continued. When you think all files except "Macros" have been copied into the RAM disk and the startup pro cess will finish soon, a system bomb appears: "Sorry, a system error occur. ID =03" 6) Repeat 5) now. However, when you get a RamDisk+ control window, change the d isk size to 0 and then click at the button "remove". Click "OK" when you are as ked "About to erase the contents in the disk". The startup process is continued and finished successfully. The results (as expected) now are: The RAM disk ha sn't been created; the launching disk hasn't been ejected, and the MacroMaker me nu appears in the menu bar. All of them are expected as if no RamDisk+ in the s tartup disk. My third question is about the relationship between RAM disk and memory cache. After creating a RAM disk, I hope I can use it to store the unchanging system fi les and application, while using the cache to store the data dynamically. In su ch case, I believe the processing speed will be increased again. But the RAM di sk 2.08 recommended disabling the cache. Why? Any people can give me a help? Thanks in advance. My email address: lin@diemen.cc.utas.oz I will summarize the responses and post it to the net. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Nov 89 01:28:01 -0500 From: earleh@eleazar.dartmouth.edu (Earle R.
