[QUOTE="Amen-Moses, post: 413685, member: 114"] Sounds like another case of the infamous logic board problem: [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65141[/url] The design fault on all iBook models is that on the logic board around the area of the Gfx chip there are some components liable to dry joints cracking up. This area is right under the trackpad so presumably pressing the trackpad button cause just enough flexing of the board to eventually lead to failure. The good news is that re-soldering the components fixes the proble, the bad news is that Apple currently are refusing to admit liability. Amen-Moses [/QUOTE]
