I am trying to diagnose the problem with my mother's powerbook g4 12". It does not retain the time settings and apparently this also is affecting some of the programs on the computer. In a PC I would say this is a CMOS battery failure, and from what I read at first it seemed that the powerbook has a similar PRAM battery. However, when I was looking for a replacement battery, I saw something from apple saying that the 12" powerbooks did not have a battery backup (PRAM). Do they or don't they, and if they don't, what could be wrong with the powerbook?
Thanks for your time!
