Try putting the battery in the other bay. Also, please elaborate on "freezes". What exactly does it do? My understanding of "freezes" is unlike any battery problem I've seen on a 300 WS. - Jeff Lentz --- Van Turner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My 300Mhz Series II WallStreet won't run for long

WallStreet Battery Problem

My 300Mhz Series II WallStreet won't run for long on the battery. It freezes after about 10 seconds. Works fine on the yo-yo. Tried what someone suggested earlier and ran Battery Reset 2.0. No difference. Could I have a loose connection to the battery? -- G-Books is sponsored by

Re: Wallstreet battery problem revisited

Hi Karl Have you tried the Battery Reset program? (provided by Apple especially for the WallStreet model, it seems.) I think someone mentioned it before in this thread, but I thought I'd reinforce the suggestion, as it has proved invaluable to me. I have a WallStreet 266MHz which I use every

Re: Wallstreet battery problem revisited

Does anyone know where I might get a new power management board (CHEAP) for my WallStreet 266? It seems to be eating batteries at a rate of one every three months, and the board seems to be the only thing I can think of (I've done the shift/option/apple/restart thing quite a few times). When

Re: Wallstreet battery problem

I have heard that 3 hours in the freezer, followed by a flat drop from a few feet up onto a hard surface will break away the dendrites that form on the opposing plates, reducing the battery's effectiveness. My one attempt by my wife hit on the corner & shattered my battery. I've not heard of any

Wallstreet battery problem

When I first bought my Wallstreet, the battery in it lasted about a year before it would suddenly die - I'd have about three quarters of battery left showing on the control strip, and then there would be a message about the battery being about to die and the computer going to sleep to preserve
