[QUOTE="migrations53, post: 887803, member: 115157"] hello, thank you both for suggesting the PRAM battery. However..... I thought of that, and swapped the one in the 1.6 which is working (although with frustrating problems of its own) The same problem, most it gets to is the apple, then a few HD boot sounds then...... stop. I am wondering if the firmware date is preventing the machine from booting now? Maybe both batteries are pretty much dead, except the one in the 1.6 is on the edge and just about working! I wonder if new ones will make a lot of difference? I fear the 2.3 has a more serious hardware fault which I can't fix... Keep the suggestions coming if possible. Thanks so much. [/QUOTE]
