Hi folks. This is my first post to this list. I've been lurking for awhile and have complete confidence in you guys. Thanks in advance for any advice you may have.
I have a Power Tower 180e that I wish to revive but cannot get anywhere with it. Here are the symptoms: 1. Front light lights, but I don't get the impression that either of the two drives are starting up. There is no start up chime, and I cannot hear the drives running. 2. No monitor data. I am using a monitor that works fine on another computer but when I connect it to this one and push the start button, it seems to start to turn on, but then immediately goes to energy saving mode. I get no picture whatsoever. The adapter to the MAC connection is a little bent and may not be connecting correctly. I will probably buy a new one of these next. 3. I thought this problem was a power supply, so I bought a new one. No changes. 4. I've replaced the battery. 5. Tried to zap PRAM, but I get no chimes when I do this... 6. Tried starting without extensions, no luck here either... Anybody have any other ideas I could try? This computer worked fine for years, then died, then came back on I think maybe once or twice, then died again. I have not been able to start it since. Thanks a lot!
