AussieAtari Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 The 3.6V lithium battery might be dead. I think that can stall the boot process without returning an error chime. I'm surprised to hear that you've had a difficult time finding an old Mac. I always see them in the thrift stores. Pretty much everything else has dried up in the thrifts, but I always see old Macintoshes. Same over here, old Macs are quite common and very cheap. I've got two Classics sitting in a back room ready to go to the tip so if there is any hardware I can rip out for you to help get yours "back on the road", just let me know. Sending components to the USA from here is not expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
