I am trying to boot up my old 1400, in order to sell it, but am having
difficulty.
First of all is the power supply- it seems to be very finicky these
days, and if I move it, the computer loses power (batteries are
discharged since I haven't used them in quite some time). This normal?
Second, and most important, the fact that the last few times I've
booted up everything seems to work fine, until the desktop is nearly
fully loaded, then the monitor shuts off. The rest of the computer
keeps running, and I can hear an error message pop up, though I have no
idea what it says. I noticed that the clock was off when I loaded the
1400 earlier, could the PRAM be dead, and that's what's causing this?
It doesn't just blink off, it's more like the computer is consciously
shutting it down
Assuming I can get it running right again, I need to access the laptop,
is there anyway to do this from an OS X computer?
