As a newcomer to the elegant and fascinating world of the PB 2400 (I used a 2300 before but needed a machine capable of video presentations) I encountered a serious problem just three days after buying a used 2400/180: When reconnecting the PB to the mains adapter the machine shut down and since then refused to recognize the battery any more, but still works okay on the mains adapter. I tried all the usual PM reset stuff without any success. As I know by now, the battery itself is okay and I probably have a mainboard problem as the battery works fine in another 2400 whereas another battery as well is not recognized.
Is there anybody out there having an idea for a do-it-yourself diagnosis or fix ?
