Well, I figured that now would be a good time to
resubscribe to this list (hello again) since I've been
gifted with two Powerbooks in two days (a 5300 and a
100), plus a pre-existing 540c, a Portable (needs
work) and iBook (in the works). Today's question
concerns my PB100.
>From what I've been told, this machine has sat for
some time unused. After replacing the PRAM batteries,
I tried to fire the thing up. There was a chime, and
the screen lit up... dark blue, with a lighter glow on
the left. There was harddrive noise, so obviously an
attempt was being made to boot. After I reset the
machine (both reset and interupt switches), I get a
micro-second glimpse of a bright, normal screen on
restart.
I've tried several different ways to reset the PMU,
but so far, it's always the same result - the blue
screen of... yawn. Any thoughts?
