Hello folks,

Being a while...

My Powerbook G4 17" has developed some strange issues. As usual, I've spent 
some time with it before coming here.

What I noticed is that once plugged into the wall, there will be a slight 
sounding buzzing.

It won't charge the battery and I doubt that it's the battery that has the 
problem. I've downloaded and installed battery  monitor and it says "unable 
to read battery status data."

It won't start without. It gives a wheezing sound instead when I hit the 
power button. And nothing happens after that. But with the dead battery in, 
it starts.

It wasn't giving the bong sound for the longest time. But after going in 
there and pushing connectors, it's bonging now and starts with the dead 
battery.

As always, thanks for your considered thoughts.
