    Powerbook 180 untraceable hardware error

    After a day of digging, I was unable to find anything compatible. Everything else is a US import with a 50$ postage fee.

    New theory on the cause of the infamous Tunnel Vision problem - Testers needed!

    Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I've got a double failure going on with a PB 180. Sadly the device itself is currently nonworking.

    Powerbook 180 untraceable hardware error

    The issue is that I live in Australia, so shipping is usually MORE than the item itself.

    Powerbook 180 untraceable hardware error

    I'm completely defeated, so I'm throwing this out there in hopes of someone more knowledgeable than I am will know what's going on here. The PowerBook chimes, then plays 8 error tones. No sad mac or error codes appear, just a blank gray screen. List of things I've tried with this machine...
