Hello u all, i�ve got a powerbook 150, but the battery was bad. Got a new one. It works, if I start the pb with the normal 220V-adapter power supply unit, it wount start with the - even fully charged - battery. But if i plug in the adapter only for 2 seconds, just for a moment, and then disconnet, it will finish up booting with the battery. But it wount start with the battery. Allways needs the first push from the 220V-socket. I have resetted allready the powermanager, but that didn�t help. Is there a fuze inside, that may be broken or something? Is it possible, that there is any hardware broken? May it have to do with the onboard battery, that keeps the ram-content? Anybody has a tip or a trick? I was in town at the apple-stores, but they all said, o, thats an old thing, they don�t have any supply for the pb150 anymore and they don�t know and I shouldn�t invest any Euro in that pb anymore... ...........well, it works allright as a writingtool, I don�t need more! I just would like to start it, even if i wouldn�t have a socket around.
Thanks for help,.. i really like that notebook and it is actually all that i need (don�t need any modern stuff, it�s good enough, it WOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH, if it would really work!) greetings!
