As it says in the title, the PowerBook G3 I recently acquired suddenly choked and died in the middle of a reboot and won't boot. It's giving me four beeps, which is supposed to be a ROM problem, the solution to which seems to be logic board replacement, and only logic board replacement. I see some replacement logic boards on eBay, but before I go tossing money at one of them, I just want to know, is there anything else I should check? I tried resetting the PRAM - the key combo doesn't work, and if the button on the back works it doesn't seem to be helping.
I'm not really sure why this suddenly happened...it wasn't running hot, and I just replaced the thermal paste :/
