2400 and White Screen at start up

[CJPV]

Tom,

Welcome to the club ~_^ 

I had the same problem- no chime, HD would spin up, and would respond to 3 finger salute. Same
problem as you?

I can tell you that it's NOT the main battery and the PRAM battery. I replaced those, reset PRAM
and tried every finger-combo at start up that you can name. I thought that (somehow) the power
manager had gotten corrupt since the original user's battery had leaked a bit, and hadn't powered
the unit on in years.

I ended up replacing both the IO board and the motherboard at the same time, since I wasnt sure of
which it would be. I beleive it was just the IO board; just havent had the time to open it back up
and put the old IO board in to test it.

At least the trial and error gave me the healthy experience in taking apart and putting a 2400c
back together.........about 7 times!!
