[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1775858, member: 175845"] I would be very suspicious of the PRAM battery being kaput, especially if the Mac was left unplugged from any power. You should be able to buy one for maybe under $10.00. You'll need a 3.6v Lithium 1/2 AA PRAM Computer Clock Battery. A pretty common computer battery type. Otherwise I guess I'd start web searching like: [url]https://www.google.ca/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=Mac+G4+cube+power+button+flash+several+times+then+turn+off&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=tt34WZylEcve8AftrbuYAw[/url] [url]https://www.google.ca/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=G4+cube+PRAM+battery&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=8N74Wdi5Esre8AfRxotA[/url] PS: You may be better off using a USB wi-fi adapter, if to can find one and any software that might be needed, rather than using that Airport express card which if I recall, were quite limited by todays standards. Good luck and welcome to the Mac-forums. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
