Any movement on this?
Not my problem, I was suggesting a fix.

So after all my complaints and pouting, I'm back on track trying to get this
2400c working.
Good news: I got a new Powerboard and it seemed to help my 2400c for a bit.
Whenever I put my Comet to sleep, it'd wake up ready to work and the battery
fully works and all.
Bad news: After leaving it unplugged for one week, it won't power on anymore.
I do PMU reset (holding the button in the back) overnight (not me, I used an
object and fixed it against a book) and it still doesn't power up.
Ugly: I thought I'd take out the battery and leave the plug in and power on.
Instead it sounds like it wants to turn on but it buzzes for a few seconds,
then fails to do anything.
What's going on? I think the Backup battery is tanked but shouldn't the
Powerbook battery still charge? I think the machine is confused about how to
charge and the battery is not charging. Any advice/thoughts?
It doesn't have enough power to even get to GLOD I think :-) Anyhow any advice
is appreciated. Thanks!
You can try this, it's worked for me on other PowerBooks. Pull the adapter
connector, pull the battery then hit the power on button. Now plug in the
power adapter and hit start. Once the computer is starting up (hopefully) then
put the battery back in.
