The backlight going out is a common problem with the Wallstreet. The
fix is fairly simple.
Restart into OS 9.
Sleep the computer.
Wake the computer.
Restart into OS X. At this point Startup Disk usually freezes. Do a
three fingered salute and try it again.
On one of my WallStreets this happens from time to time. This fix has
always fixed it.
Hitting the brightness button a bunch of times fixes the back light
issue. Still can only see 128MB's of RAM. Almost like the top slot is
inactive, but I can put RAM in it and the Mac boots all the way to the
login screen. I downloaded an app called 'informac' but it won't read
the RAM config. System profiler won't lit it either, but I believe this
is because I have 10.2.8 right? Thanks everyone for the help so far!
