[QUOTE="PhillyMac, post: 1147307, member: 177342"] It seems like you took the necessary precautions before soldering. Just my opinion (based on some experience though), but it sounds like the HD cable isn't properly seated. If it boots to the question mark, your iBook is telling you that it can't find a bootable hard drive. Depending on which iBook you have, you may need to also check the ribbon connector that attaches to the mobo. [/QUOTE]
