If you need repair, I can help you. CompUSA is a no-no for all things MAC other than software perhaps.
Check my Ebay ID sc-computer-inc. I refurbish 500 series systems professionally and have any part you could imagine for it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Holder" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PowerBooks" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 1:47 PM Subject: Re: Need help with dead 520c First thing to try is to remove all power sources and let it sit awhile. Failing that, reset the power manager with all power removed. As for CompUSA, yes, they might could fix it. But, you could probably get a whole new 520c what they'd want to charge. Probably even a 33mhz upgrade to go alone with it. Scott Holder -----Original Message----- From: PowerBooks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of André Rüegg Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 1:29 PM To: PowerBooks Subject: Need help with dead 520c My trusty old 520c, which has been upgraded with a Newer PowerPC upgrade card and a 540c screen, has suddenly decided to play dead. It does nothing. The batteries seem to be charged. The power supply seems to be providing power. I pulled the hard drive and it worked fine in an external case (I retrieved my data). But when I hit the power button it just sits there. When I had the case open I made sure that everything seemed to be seated properly on the boards. Any suggestions? I noticed that the local (45 miles away) CompUSA store advertises that they can repair any type of computer. Would this be a safe alternative? Any recommendation for other repair options? Thanks in advance for any help. Wanting his Blackbird to fly again, Andre -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
