Beth,
This is a familiar problem with a Powerbook 2400. It is a hardware
problem, possibly on the Power Supply/IO card but more likely on the
logic board or the CPU daughtercard. Personally I suspect the logic
board, because it has also happened to my 2400 with a Interware G3 CPU
daughtercard installed. If you're not under AppleCare, DT&T in Fremont,
CA can fix it and has been recommended by many on this list. Please let
us know if you get get a confirmed diagnosis, and also if they repaired
the card, or replaced it.
