Anybody seen similar issues with your WS? It looks like both batteries are dead. It could also be the PMU (Power Management Unit). Did you try to reset it? Check Apple's web site for instructions on how to do it. It could also be the PRAM battery, but I think that the main batteries have to be in working order for the PRAM battery to recharge. -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
