Pismo won't start up

2006-02-26 Thread sorular

G'day

I have a start-up problem with my Pismo-400. It was working quite good 
up until few days ago.
The symptom is the start-up, I can't get it to start. I've checked its 
power supply and it's working.


Since it's battery was dead long time ago, I've always used it with its 
power supply attached and it worked quite well for a long time.
The only other possible cause I can think of is that, I didn't use it 
for quite some time.


It's a Pismo 400, with 64mb Ram and 20GB hdd.

Can anyone give me some other possible causes for this symptom?

cheers

Okay, based on my Lombard experience, reset the PMU. It's done by 
holding the little button between the telephone and VGA connectors 
down for about ten seconds and releasing it. Then, plug 'er back in 
and try again.

try unplugging your clock battery. be sure the main battery is removed when
you do it and the power adapter  is not plugged in . leave the clock battery
unplugged, insert main battery, power lead and then re-boot.
