An idea is all I have! I had the same problem when I pulled my 540c apart to clean it (and to uhhh... poke around the insides cos I hadn't seen inside one before :D and when I'd clipped the memory back in, the tiny fine-pinned connector had one pin leaning over to the side and shorting with another. I used a pair of tweezers to straighten it, popped the memory in and all was fine again. I don't know what the CPU connector is like, but that's my experience... be well :D dana -- http://dana.jaime.com/ -- -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
