I started my day today with a Green Light Of Death. ..and was able to recover in under 5 minutes. Well not started, but here's the story: Sent a couple of emails from home, put the 2400 to sleep and threw it in my bag. When I got to the office the battery had fallen out of it's bay. I had just slid out on it's own (probably due to my paint job... I have noticed the batts don't stay latched as well anymore... ) Anyway, like an Idiot�, I threw the battery back in and presto the pale green light appears like a death knell atop the screen. I have noted that the few times I have seen the GLOD is when my sleeping 2400 either runs it's battery dry, or I remove the battery for too long while it is asleep. I walk out of my office to pace around a bit... I hate living too long without my Comet. After a few minutes I figure I'll try a different method. I hold the RESET button down for about 15 seconds, and while still holding it in I plug the AC cord into the back. Presto! It boots on it's own volition! After the screen lights up I slide my battery back in and I'm on my way. Thought I'd share that experience with the group. --chuck goolsbee geek wrangler, digital.forest inc, bothell, wa <http://www.forest.net> list mom, mac-mgrs mailing list... <http://www.mac-mgrs.org> ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
