Well, this afternoon I've opened up my neice's PB 5300cs to hunt for the PRAM battery. I think i might have located it. I'm still wondering if this is the problem. Heck, I'm wondering if this funny looking thing I'm looking at is the battery. It's round, about the size of 2 stacked nickels, wrapped in a brown, plastic wrapping, and attached to a small board via 3 wires of red, white, and black. Is this what the battery looks like in this PB?
The original problem is that the screen isn't displaying anything other than some backlight.
