Afternoon all New poster
I have a PowerBook 140 that (after sitting in a closet for a couple of years) won't boot up - no chimes, no drive whirr, nothin'
either on battery or the cord or both.
I have:
- Tried three different main batteries and three different power cords. A PowerBook 160 will boot from the cord with or without two of the three batteries (the third battery will stop it from booting up as well)
- Replaced the lithium battery inside with a fresh 3V one.
- Tried to search around both Google and this list's archives.
There was some mention of a fuse - where? Any other suggestions? Brian
PS If it is toast - how many components can I use as spares for the 160?
ram, drives, modem, screen, keyboard, trackball?
