I can get rid of the green light on my Duo by pressing the power/reset button on the back, and then it should boot. Make sure that you have the power adaptor pluged in as well. If that dosn't work. remove all power and disconect the PRAM battery. Then try to boot up the Duo again. This will drain everything. Reconnect the PRAM battery (the light will grow green again) then connect the power adator and a battery. Hit the reset button on the back. If that dosn't work, try the power key. That should get it going again. >After normal use since I bought my 2300* four years ago, I was >having a problem >getting it to recognize my Sony external CD-ROM drive.
