Dear List, >From the answer I received to my previous post about my Duo 230:
"Duo #2 is really scary. I tried starting it up again with the back button several times, holding it down a while to reset the power manager, but still the same amber flashes, and nothing else. It has started this strange ticking, though, like the tick of a pocketwatch that stops when you pull the power cord out. I tried starting it with just the top button (instead of back), and got all sorts of flashes on the screen in rhythm with the tick at the back of the Duo. The caps lock light kept flashing, too, and then a sliver of silver horizontal stripe across the screen..." I assume it's safe to conclude that it's dead. What I would like to do is rescue its hard drive and memory and put it in a working Duo 250 that I have since the screen and keyboard are better on the 250. Will this work, and is this a job that I could do with no experience in opening Duo's? I have replaced hard drives and memory on desktops, but never on laptops. Does anyone know of a site that gives step-by-step directions for this other than the Apple service manual? Thanks, Janice ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
