[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1573439, member: 56379"] Well...there is always the chance that the seller was lying. This is a risk we take buying a laptop computer that we cannot fully test before purchasing. But let's hope not!:) Does the computer work at all when plugged in with the power supply? The first thing I would try is an SMC reset: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964]Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)[/url] This may or may not work...since when the battery was removed...that is sort of the equivalent of an SMC reset. Good luck,:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
