Hi all-

This 2300 is real hard to start. 44Mb/700Mb 8.6 with SD. I will get any 
number of static like clicks using reset button, power switch, or 
control-command-power. Occasional chime with no screen at all (not a grey 
screen- no screen lighting.) When I get a chime and a screen it will 
start and run. After about 10 minutes it will freeze. If I select 
restart, even while it is running normally, it will shut down and stay 
shut down- except for the hard drive. It will continue spinning. Disk 
Warrior has done it's thing. I haven't succeeded in getting any hard 
drive utilities to work. In SCSI dock mode it froze my 2400 when running 
Norton. I think it is a FWB disk. I also haven't re-installed either. And 
I haven't done any extension work. I think CC would lose it's way, might 
take 3 days to get enough start-ups to analyze an extension conflict. I 
did put in another PRAM battery (Batteries plus- a chain, welded the 
contacts, while I waited) but that was no help except that the mini green 
light no longer showed GLOD.

Anyone want to direct my efforts? Hardware problem with the power 
manager? With the SCSI system? Software? (Extension issue or OS corrupt) 
HDD?

I'm another guy who is very impressed with this list.

To throw in a few more cats and dogs: the machine has a trackball but a 
2300 bottom case (has a decal.) The 2300 top case with track pad won't 
fit. It interferes with the metal frame. What model frame (frame 
stiffener) does it have?
Does anyone work with the Newer 240/G3 that didn't work (the Wegener 
deal) in my 2400?

Thanks all
-Mark
