DING! LIGHTS GO ON! thanks for saying that. 'if the mac is left unplugged, iit does drain the PRAM battery....'
MAY BE, JUST MAYBE, THE REASON MY 6360 isn't spinning up and seeing the hard drive, could be because by brother in law unplugged the machine and put it in his closet for awhile before he handed it to me, and the PRAM is dead???? hmmm. possible? I replaced all the other PRAM batteries in my macs as soon as i found them. it never occurred to me to do it with this, probably because i havent made that association with this new kind of battery yet. ok-it couldn't 'hoit'--where does a person in a major metropolitan city get a 4.5v square alkaline battery for a mac PPC motherboard? radio shack or is there a better price? janet http://community.webtv.net/mensabrains/BADCODE -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
