I think you have to reduce the number of colors or the resolution for the VGA port. Also, make sure you put the Wallstreet to sleep, plug your monitor then awake the Wallstreet. See if it detects the monitor. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Washington, DC, USA Usual disclaimers apply *** -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

However, the problem may be in the battery charge module, rather than the logic board. Cheers, Ben -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

In some cases you may need to reboot. PS: Does anyone have a spare logic board for me? My battery doesn't charge anymore and I'm pretty sure it isn't the battery. Already replaced the DC board to no avail. I have a WSII 300mhz. Have you tested with another battery? Do you have other problems with the Power? It could more likely be the PMU-card acting up and that needs replacing or as I told someone else onlist with similar problems: I'd do these steps (far from complete): 1. Check if you have a bad connection from the battery to the charger board by taking out the battery and firmly pushing it back in. See if that helps. If so, you may want to check the torx screws on the battery side and see if they need tightening or if a few are missing. 2. Check if the shielding tape on the inside of the bottom case, near the opening where you put the power supply, have come a little lose so it touches the power supply connector when it is inserted. I had this problem with a WS II before and the solution was to take apart the machine more or less completely and reattach the tape that was loose. I put other thin tape on top of it to hold it in place. If you have another WS to test the battery in, to rule out the battery itself, then that's certainly helpful. Equally if you have another battery to test in your WS. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
