The 6100 will start up with a dead PRAM battery, but it take patience. You have to leave it plugged into the mains for a while and then sort of pump the power button rapidly a few time. It can take a good 10+ attempts to get it to start, but it will. Matt -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
