| Powerbook 170 issue |
Posted by: Papichulo on 2020-01-09 17:20:16 I got a powerbook 170. The battery was so bad i had to open the computer to remove. The computer booted with sad mac chimes. I removed the ram card but had the same result. After 5 seconds the screen will flash like its trying to reset or something. What's wrong? No corrosion on the boards i just cleaned. Thanks
