I'm pretty sure you get get them from Radio Shack. I know that you can get them from Jameco in Belmont, CA, and they're quite a bit cheaper than RS, too.

Well, Encouraged by all the responses pertaining to a dead battery I decided to forage through the machine looking for that velcro strip you mentioned. Well, I found the Velcro strip but it was EMPTY! I didn't really know what the battery was supposed to look like so I was just wandering through the machine until I noticed something sitting on an empty bay shelf under the CD Rom Drive and lo and behold, there was a 1 inch square black Ray-o-Vac battery. (Thank you very much CompUSA) I was looking for a clock battery the size of a quarter!! Anyway, the obvious question now is where will I be able to locate such a battery. Are they still in business????? I've never seen one like this. Maybe Radio Shack. I should be so lucky!! Anyway it's a 4.5V alkaline battery with a red and black 6" long wire leading into a small connector that attaches to the mother board. Anybody got any ideas about where to locate a replacement???? Oh BTW, I remember someone mentioning the CUDA switch before! It was referring to my Power Computing machine at home, also a clone. I found it after a lot of searching around. I JUST found the CUDA switch on this one so IF I can find a new battery and a number 2 pencil with an eraser..........I MIGHT be back in business!!! All thanks to you guys on this list!! Well, let's see what I can find! I'll let you know how I make out..............or if one of you knows where I might get my hands on such a battery let me know. I'll owe you a sixpack of your choice!! :-) Regards, Jim -- -- StarMax is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> StarMax list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/starmax.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/starmax%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Macintosh?
