[QUOTE="louishen, post: 525759, member: 40142"] If none of the above work (you cannot boot at all, then it is probably one of 3 things: Check all slots - it may have no RAM at all (you already suspect that) If there is RAM then try replacing the motherboards Battery (about half an inch long and very cheap to replace) If that fails, try starting up from an install CD - if you don't have one maybe a mac friend may help you out) press C on startup to boot from a CD If all that fails then I think you're stuck :-( PS - last time this happened to me it was the battery - cost my about 5 pounds for a new one [/QUOTE]
