One would think that taking it all apart and leaving it for hours with no battery would completely reset the PRAM, but did you try holding the reset keys for 9 or 10 PRAM-reset cycles? (if you can get that many on a 3400- for some reason, I can only get 2 or 3 cycles on my 1400, unlike desktops). With successive resets (keys held continuously) on desktops anyway there's different levels of PRAM reset going on- it takes 5 or 7 reboots or something to fully reset all the info. This sounds JUST like what I had on those desktops with bootable ZIP disks that messed up reboots without a Zip installed/hooked up. B -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
