What do you think? The PRAM battery needs to be replaced in the 9500. What happens is, when the PRAM battery dies the date/time and monitors will reset/stay dark. Then on the restart the charge that you just sent through the dead battery will be enough to start the Mac normally. It's an easy fix. -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
