Can somebody please help? I have a 12" G4 Ibook, 800 mhz and about 6 months ago the battery icon started to display an x in the battery, never recognizing a charge. I disengaged the battery, put it back in and the icon showed a plug, and the words calculating time left in parenthesis. For awhile the battery icon took a few minutes, recognized the battery and began charging it. However, now it never recognizes the battery, the icon always shows an x.
So I bought a new battery, and to no avail, the same thing happens. I thought maybe I had a problem with OSX so I erased the volume and reinstalled everything. Nothing, still the same x in the battery icon. I've reset the Pram, NVram and anything else I could think of. Does anybody have a clue to what may be causing this problem and how I may be able to fix it? Thanks, JRF
