I think I may have made a mistake. I recently purchased a Powerbook 2400c - stock - off ebay. It did not come with a power adapter, but it came charged.
(I will use use a Powerbook G3 2000 45w adapter if I can over come my GLOD Problem. My PB G3 died about a year ago, but the AC adapter still works) I had some GLOD problems when it arrived, but it could be fixed with resetting the PMU (the button in the back is called the PMU right?) Since then I bought some RAM and added a different hard drive. Since the installation the GLOD cannot be vanquished. I tried just removing the new RAM. Still GLOD. Put back the old hard drive. Still GLOD. These are the steps I've tried from advice I've got off the net: a) Disconnect the AC adapter b) Pull Lion battery out c) Reconnect AC d) Reset Power Manager button by depressing it for at least 40 seconds -battery out with AC connected results in resetting Power Manager. I am considered buying a new PRAM battery, but unsure if this a wise Investment. I have a limited budget, but would enjoy having a powerbook again. Please advise. Any thoughts are appreciated and welcome. If you would prefer to email me off list to spare everyone else on the list, please feel free.
