12 PB - Creaky Screen Hinge

2003-09-03 Thread James Stocks
Hello everybody,

My 12 PowerBook's screen hinge used to be silky smooth.  Lately however,
the hinge has developed a nasty creaking noise and is a bit sticky.
Presumably, 3-in-1 is not the best thing to use!  Any suggestions?

Many thanks,
James.

Re: Kernel panics when moving

I can't remember if it was on this list or another one that I read about
this problem. Someone reported correlating their kernel panics with picking
up the open Powerbook by the left side. I don't remember exactly what they
decided the problem was or how they fixed it. Well, my PB 12 is now doing
just that. Loose RAM? Aircard? Fatal flaw? Anyone remember?

Thanks,
Meg

It's the Airport Extreme card that causes the problem.  Just pop the battery
out, open the access door and then remove and re-fit the card.  You'll
probably have to disconnect the antenna to do this which can be tricky if
you don't have nimble fingers.

Regards,
James.
