hi,
I bought a used Powerbook 1ghz 17" from an appletechnician and recieved it today. I started it for a couple of times noticing nothing wrong. Then I put in a cd and imported the songs to ITunes, when it was done I tried to eject the cd but the screen froze. Could not force quit any apps and after I turned the PB off it is impossible to restart, I get to the point where the apple appears and it continues so forever. tried force ejecting in open firmware, resetting pram + starting it holding the shift-button but nothing seems to work.
i'm no macexpert so if you have any suggestions of what might be wrong and what I can do pleeeeeze help me. I am on the brink of despair!!!Is there anyway to eject the cd?
I checked the RAM (two identical sticks 512mb) and they are marked module mem for powerbook: MDT SODIMM 512MB PC333
All I know about the superdrive is that it is a Matshita and that it has been changed.
I tried booting it in targetmode into my old ibook and it worked.
