If the PRAM was reset sometimes it does that, in your bad it may have

There are many dealers selling these drives and all Powerbooks up to the 5xx

I found another 1400 that I had stashed. Tried it and could get no response other than
a little noise. So, assuming it is not the hard drive, I pulled that 2.G and put it in
the good 1400. The machine recognized it, but said it wasn't a HDD disk. I tried to
initialize it and it didn't happen.
For some reason it doesn't want to start up off the HDD. I'd start it
off a system CD and see if the HDD shows up on the desktop - then at
least you can tell whether something has gone awry with your re-install
of the HDD, or whether somehow the System Folder on the HDD has been
corrupted.

I'm the only Mac tech @ the Fremont Fry's! And as for the people Fry's
hires, it all depends. I know that there is a LARGE number of people @
Fry's who know very little about anything technical. On the other hand
there is a big number of people working @ Fry's who know their stuff!

I'm not really sure what your point is, I guess that the 'tech' didn't know
what he was talking about even though he seemed like he did. People usually
bash Macs ut of total ignorance and, probably, fear of the unknown.

would allow the PowerBook to boot without an A/C adapter and everything
seemed fine. I got into class this morning and tried to boot the
PowerBook but ended up getting minor drive noise and no boot. I used the
