That symptom sounds almost exactly like what I'm seeing on my apple, but I don't understand the fix: "..remove the shell from the computer and re-inserting it after it has been connected to 12 V."
What is it you exactly are doing here? Taking the guts out of its case? Is there some sort of a reset mechanism involved? Can somebody translate this into what the equivalent woould be on a Macintosh Powerbook 150?
