Nat,
I had nothing but a plague of minor issues running any version of
system 9 on the 3400, I am running 8.6 on the one machine I still have
running and it is stable, have 6 others that have some version of acute
sleeping sickness(GLOD etc.).

I too had a mirriad of problems when I installed OS 9

never had any problems since, that was three years
ago.

Well,
I think I make progress with my 3400c, but then it rises up to slap me
in the face yet again. I get home today and decide to try booting it
up with out extensions on. I press the power button, and no chimes --
instead, the Whine of Doom. I try restart, and the Whine of Doom
changes pitch (a
And then again... could it be the battery?
Will a bad battery cause these many issues?
I simply don't know.
