iMac G3 help CUDA problem
Posted by: glay78 on 2018-10-28 21:14:06
I am unable to power up my iMac G3. I opened up the case and pressed the CUDA button and it powers up. However every time I switch the mains to off I have to redo it again. Is something faulty? I had the PRAM battery removed by the way.

It only happened recently by the way.

Your last sentence answers your question. The same thing happens on my Bondi iMac with a dead or missing battery.

Great thanks! I’ll get it replaced soon.
