Greetings, colleagues. I have a PowerBook Duo symptom/problem; need diagnosis!
I'm prepping a Duo 280 (greyscale) for a swap. As long as I've had it, it has exhibited zero screen problems. It came to me w/ a patched up version of Sys 7.5 on it, and the soon-to-be-new owner requested 7.6. Installation (including disk - reinitializing) went flawlessly; the unit responded well and boots up fine and peppy and full of spunk - BUT... suddenly (as in, the very first time I booted up in Sys 7.6 by the HD and not CD or floppy), the screen is showing curled blacking out in all 4 of the corners - looks like a piece of paper w/ cinged or charred corners from a fire that was put out (the center of the screen is still sharp and clear). What is this? Is there an anomoly of sorts w/ this unit and Sys 7.6? Has the screen crossed over and begun it's journey into the great beyond? (Does it happen that quickly, to go from a great screen to the "charred corners" look?) I need to let my trader know what's up - if you can provide any info or advice i would appreciate it. I'm new w/ Duos, so I haven't generated a long history of experience w/ them. My thanks in advance. Best regards, Dana -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
