I know this is probably dumb, but did you ever use an AC adapter you
know is good (just to be sure) ?

Cleaning the battery terminals never hurts. What system were you
using ? Earlier systems may not recognize later (T2,3) batts.
I guess I would check the AC adapter port for damage. I kind of
doubt you will see anything though.

About the only thing I can think of then, is to leave a unit with a
good param batt in it, hooked up to a good AC adapter overnight, and
see if it boots the next day (letting the Gremlins drain out).
Other than that, I dont know.
