SO, I plugged it into the AC adapter, and boom, it powered up instantly - without pressing anything. All is well, except now, when it boots up it says that there was a memory test error, then followed by a warning that there isn't enough memory to install my extensions and is booting up without them. Worse of all, when I now go to "About the Computer" I have suddenly dropped from what used to be 144mb of physical RAM to the original 16mb! >>
In addition to checking if the RAM is properly seated, I would also try a good "4-bong" PRAM reset at startup (after 1st startup bong, press+hold keys "Apple"/"Option"/"P"/"R" until you hear three additional startup bongs). By the way; The fact that the 3400c powered back up instantly also tells me that your PRAM battery is not working properly. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo Ivy F., AL "Roll Tide!"
