We have recently upgraded a PB 270C using the Mac upgrade motherboard to get it up to a 2300 Power Mac. Initially it worked but after a few minutes it " goes to sleep". No end of changing and checking bits seems to cure this. We have tried: Removing the internal battery and restarting Using an external CD to wipe and reformat the hard drive ) it cut off in the middle of this operation! ) Checking the RAM is OK by substitution Checking the screws on the battery terminals Substituting the HD for a known good one Starting from adapter or batteries
None of these work. It tries hard but just stops a few minutes into its run time.If you restart it only goes as far as the Mac welcome screen then freezes. If its turned off and rebooted after about 5 minutes it will reboot from the CD. Anyone got any ideas before we bin the machine and Docks?
