Hi Rhonda,
Well, you were half right anyway.
With KeySoft 7, even on the classic, it insists on having the power
adapter plugged in when doing the battery drain mode until it drives
you crazy, etc.
However, if you do it in these steps it actually works. I did it on
three classics.
1. Leave it charging for at least three hours. It will still say
that the battery gage is not accurate and needs to be recallibrated.
2. Unplug the adapter and run it until it goes flat. I did this by
inserting a lot of files into one file, setting the speech rate to 1
and the volume up very high with earphones plugged into it. I then
started it reading the document, which was about 650 pages.
3. When it freezes up, plug the adapter back in for at least three
hours. The battery gage will now give an accurate reading.
I double checked by going into support mode and hitting the letter A.
I am sending this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as well, though I doubt
that will do any good.
Thanks for your help and sorry for the extra frustration I probably
added to your week.
Sincerely,
Richard

Richard, I have a classic, too. What I am saying, with the M Power,
it has to be plugged in. You and I have the classic. You have to
unplug it to drain it.
