What about clock/nvram battery?
I have a 4400 which wouldn't start up until a new battery was in place.
The battery is only relevant on certain models, although many folks
will tell you otherwise. The PRAM battery matters not at all on the
machines with this power supply, as far as starting up is concerned.
AFAIK, the earliest machine on which the PRAM battery played a part
in proper start up was the Q605, LC475/6, P475/6, all of which are
the same machine.
Macs before PCI slots have PRAM but no NVRAM. NVRAM is a thing that
came along with PCI slots and Open Firmware.
I hope that clears things up a bit.
Chad, please learn to trim your quoted text. You posted two lines of
new material and quoted something like three pages of material plus
the list footers.
