Dear WAMUGgers
I need help for my PowerBook, G4 15" 10.4.9.
I had a warranty battery replacement just before Christmas and since
late January, the PowerBook crashes if the power charger is
disconnected, including reverting to 1970 date/time prefs.
One line of advice suggests that the new battery is faulty. Another,
that the laptop's P-RAM battery has failed. (Yes apparently the
PowerBook has such a battery).
I've just read about coconutBattery diagnostic software. http://
www.coconut-flavour.com/coconutbattery/
This shows my battery as being 4184 mAh of 4046 mAh (96%) charged,
with 4182 of 4400 mAh capacity (95%), with 59 Battery-Loadcycles, my
Mac being 26 months old, and:
Charger connected: No
Battery is charging: No
...when my charger is connected and the PowerBook battery menu
indicator shows 96% and charging?
Any advice please before I send it off to the MacDoctor in far-south
Perth?
Many thanks
