I had an instructor bring me a Powerbook G4 that won't power up. I tried resetting the PMU and taking the battery out, as well as re-seating the RAM.
The charger light in the back is always amber...
Any ideas?
I just got an excellent condition (little to no yellowing!) apple adjustable keyboard set for a total of $25.
In running through my iMate I noticed that some of the keys on the main keyboard repeat or do not work the first time... yet the function keys and keypad work as they should.
Thoughts...
So I'm going a little nuts with the paypal in my account and bought a motherboard with a video card and ethernet card off ebay. The best part was it had some huge RAM sticks on it.
Maybe I'll make a II into a IIfx with the spare mobo.
Huh - that's interesting. I wonder if i should remove it.
I think last night i tried the RAM that I believe to be faulty without that device as well - no dice.

Ok I'm going to post pics tonight.
I found the Q800 in 700 case that MacG4 sold me had a Radius Nubus card in it for video. Alas when I tried it I got no video from it.

Ok so I figured I'd take my conquest thread here.
Background:
I purchased this IIfx not knowing of its condition. No idea on how much RAM and no HD.
I plugged it in last night and got nothing, no chime, nada.
Remembering that these were picky about PRAM batteries I put two new fresh ones in...
Yeah I put 2 new PRAM batteries in it. I'll have to dig up a different video card to test. I don't have any nubus cards.
The card in it is a Macintosh II video card.
Thanks equill!
I powered on the IIfx to the death chines.
I removed a bank of RAM and it chimes normally but I get no video :(
Looks like I need to investigate further...
At least the LW works without a hitch!
Over the weekend I picked up a few things.
1 - IIfx
I snatched this up for $30 then came home to realize it has no HD :-(
The RAM banks are full but i haven't powered it on to see how much it has. Whoever thought to use 64pin simms is an idiot... I hope this thing is maxed.
