Comment: Hi, I have apowerbook 180c and when I insert a disk I get a message saying "The disk is unreadeable: Do you want to initialize it? I click on the initialize button and then a message says " This process will erase all information on this disk" I click erase and then a massage says " Please name this disk" I name it and then it says formatting disk and then it pops out the disk and gives a message "INITIALIZATION FAILED".
Do anyone know what the problem is? Thanks. Also I am looking for a modem for the powerbook 180c anyone know where to get one thanks?
