Dear WAMUGgers
About a week ago my G4 PowerBook 15" 1.67 10.4.8 developed a
distressing habit. It won't run unless the power supply is connected.
If I remover the power, it immediately shuts down and the date/time
reverts to 1970. It may also require a 'forced' restart to get it
going again. It has a new battery, replaced under warranty in
December 2006 and MiniBatteryLogger (a nice app I read about recently
to trouble-shoot wayward batteries), tells me it is close to perfect.
I've tried resetting the Power Management Unit (PMU) as per Apple
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449 but that made no
difference. Any ideas before I send it off to the Apple Doctor?
