Yes an empty battery could certainly cause this behaviour. Happened to me aswell when the battery was empty of my B&W G3. It would sometimes boot if I pressed the CUDA button on the mobo, otherwise not. Getting a new battery fixed it. Also a FYI: instead of PC100 RAM you can also buy PC133 RAM which is cheaper then PC100 nowadays anyway. * * -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
