Seeing if the battery would charge in the other bay was something that hadn't occurred to me. It didn't help, however, and I'm assuming the battery's shot. Do not have access to other Lombards or their batteries where I am. Guess I just need to buy a new battery. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
