Does anyone know where I might get a new power management board (CHEAP) for my WallStreet 266? It seems to be eating batteries at a rate of one every three months, and the board seems to be the only thing I can think of (I've done the shift/option/apple/restart thing quite a few times).
When I first bought my Wallstreet, the battery in it lasted about a year before it would suddenly die - I'd have about three quarters of battery left showing on the control strip, and then there would be a message about the battery being about to die and the computer going to sleep to preserve contents of memory. I then bought another (Apple) battery, which worked fine for another year and then - same again. The third battery (Lacie) only lasted a few months. This fourth battery (VST) has just developed the same fault, and I've only been using it for a month or so. Batteries don't generally get a hard time from me, as I usually use the AC adapter. Surely I'm not getting a string of defective batteries? Karl -- -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
