If you cannot find batteries, I did come across a wonderful extention that _seems_ to replace the need for a battery by saving the Pram settings to disk before shutdown. This extention is called "the grouch" I found it on a floppy that was for some odd reason in the drive of my PowerMac 6100 and when installed on both my Classic and LCII (Both with dead batteries) it retains all setting after boot (including the color settings on the LCII). I don't know where to find it, or how to dump it, but if I get instructions, I will post a copy of it for you, or you might be able to find a copy yourself. -hope that helps
