Something probably just jarred loose and the computer thought there was
a change like a video board, memory card etc.
Any time something changes even temporarily the pram refuses to let it
start back up. If it happened one, it may happen again.

THANKS to Ed and Noah!! I did as they advised and it started right
up. Now,
who can tell me what happened? Did I do something wrong that I could
prevent in
the future?

There's a little button in the back between the two round plugs. Push
it in for about ten seconds and release it. That should let it start.

Subject: 1400 Sleep Light on solid, but computer off -- Help!!
Hi all:
I have lurked for a while and I am happy for all the information I
have
gleaned
from this list. Unfortunately I now have a problem.
I was using my 1400c/166 while I was on vacation last week. When I
was
finished
using it for the last time, I shut it down and placed it into my
carrying case
(vertically). I just happened to be in the bag for something else
and
I noticed
that the sleep indicator light was on solid (not flashing).
I can't remember if this light is on solid when I am using the
computer. The
screen is black. I first tried pressing the <return> key, nothing.
Next I
attempted to turn on the computer by pressing <on/off>, nothing.
Finally, I
attempted to restart the computer by pressing
<ctrl><command><on/off>,
nothing.
I plugged in the computer, thinking that there may not be enough
juice
in the
computer to turn on or restart. I repeated the above steps, and
nothing.
This has never happened to me, but you are all so smart that I know
someone out
there knows what the problem is. I suspect it is a simple problem
and
an
equally simple fix. I really need to get some files off this
computer,
so I
appreciate all your sage advice :-)
Thanks ahead of time to any replies,
Carole
