(not a very far distance to traverse though....) My PB 180 lately has been doing the following:
Whenever I start it up after a day or so off (after being plugged in OR with a good charged battery only) it starts up by giving me the Chimes Of Death! Then when I restart it, it will startup 1/2-way then give me System Error, either a "Bus" error or a "no floating point co-processor error." Then after several attempts with starting it up with either Extentions off, or rebuilding the Desktop, or w/ a PRAM zap (sometimes doing these things several times) it will act okay... ...until the NEXT TIME I leave it off for more than a day! 1. Just got a new PRAM battery put in it! 2. The rechargable battery holds a confirmed charge! It can run the computer on its own for 30 minutes or so... 3. Some other problems were going on a week ago (system problems/crashing and such) WITH THESE SAME startup problems, so I erased the HD and started over... but this startup stuff is still going on!
