Hi all,
Thanks for replying!
I'm curious, why won't the command-option-P-R (Zap the PRAM) work on
the PTP? When you hold those down during the boot process, the
computer usually reboots (cycles) until you let them up again.
I tried swapping batteries. That didn't fix the problem.
I also tried booting from the CD - that didn't work.
I haven't tried removing the cache DIMM yet, but I'll try that next.
Do you have any other ideas?
Peace,
Drew
The Command-option-P-R command doesn't cause the computer to reboot
anyway,
