Hey all...
I recently discovered a Powerbook 100 that my wife used when she was
in college. When she last used it (well over 10 years ago!) she said
that it was working fine. Currently, when I push what I think is the
startup button I get a tone, I can see the light coming from the
backlight on the screen but that is about it... nothing else. No
happy mac face, no startup - not ever. I left it on thinking that it
would warm the video card and would eventually start but no go.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot this?
I don't have any of the OS 6 or 7 system install floppys that I could
use to work on it... nor do I have a manual showing me even what
button is what! I think I am pushing the power button (on the left
side) but not sure. I have tried both of them and nothing seems to
work. One gives me a chime that lights the screen but it stays blank,
the other gives me a longer tone and makes two orange lines show up
on the screen... I am a big user of powerbooks - but I have only had
G series pbooks so this is before my time... I would love to get this
thing up and running.
Any help at all would be huge.
Best
Koby
