startup problems with PBG3

[Tom Adams]

Hi G-bookers, I recently acquired a PowerBook G3/300. I know next to 
nothing about it's history, but it is in great physical condition. The 
machine has no main battery, but I am using a good power supply.  The 
machine gives a good strong chime on startup, and the screen seems nice 
and bright, but stays gray, with no pointer, just a gray screen.  I 
have not tested the internal battery, but wonder if a dead internal 
battery might be the problem.  Shall I change the internal battery?  
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Tom Adams
