Have you tried it without the battery in it??? If I leave my 5300 unplugged for a long time it will do the chime and power-on right when it is plugged in... sometimes it wont come on unless I remove the battery. I know its battery is bad though... Just try it one time without the battery and see

What do I need to know about adding RAM to a PB150 that only has the 4MB onboard? I have heard of an adapter, do I need to buy one? If so, where can I get it? How much should it cost? Many thanks to all replies -Eric J = PB145, iceBook Classic II(x2), Performa 405,IIci 6100/66 DOS Compatible,

Eric, I haven't worked on the one I've got beyond getting it running, but you do need what Apple calls a memory expansion card, I have an Apple part # M4185 for a 8 MB expansion kit. Roger Eric wrote: > What do I need to know about adding RAM to a PB150 that only has the > 4MB onboard? I ha

Actually, would'nt the smallest mac ever be the monochrome PowerBook Duo's? I have one of those too :) I went into my local The Apple Store and I dont thing the 12'' is smaller than the Duo. Maybe same size, maybe a bit more. I'm sure in some way the 12'' is smaller but overall I think my Du

Re: powerbook 150 max ram

craig, you're right. However, I know (I've owned in excess of 800 of the 1xx series Powerbooks) that the 165 can NOT accept any RAM from any other Powerbook, other than a 1xx series.. it will only max at 14mb.. it has 4mb soldered on the main board, and can accept up to an additional 10mb car

No display on PowerBook 150

Howdy, all. I'd posted once before about this with no answers, and thought I'd ask again. I've picked up a PowerBook 150 which appears to work, but there is no display. The PB is in very good shape with no scratches or dents so I'm guessing it's not physical damage.

Greetings, all. This is my first message to the PowerBook list, since I am a brand-new old PowerBook owner. I just picked up a PowerBook 150 nice and cheap with new battery and charger. It makes the startup "bong" and the hard drive grinds away for a few seconds, but there is no disp
