Machine has quite. Happens whether pluggged-in or on battery. (I already know that PRAm battery needs replacement. I already know there is a short in cable that connects video-half to keyboard-half. (We repaired that short (worninsulation) and plan to replace that cable next time opening the TiBook.(Anyone know the part number or how I find oit?)</div><div><br></div><div>About the time these events began, I noticed that one of the screws on bottom case had fallen out. (I presume that reassembly when it was last opened included slightly angled-screwdriver, and I will appropriately ask for more attention to that detail next time. (They said they owe me a "free opening" i.e. no bench-fee, because they forgot to install the requested PRAM battery last time. Plan was/is to do that when i have purchased larger hard-drive to install, to replace original drive. Plan this soon. Want this to be last time to take TiBook apart (unless Motherboard or something else goes AND is cost-effective to repair).</div><div><br></div><div>So, I want to know if this new short is likely to be on the same cable I am about to order -- or, if it is likely to be somewhere else, and if there is some part I should be ordering.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks.</div><br><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div>J Winter</div><div><div><a href="mailto:day@whidbey.net">day@whidbey.net</a></div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Power Book: That is the original Titanium (Jan 2001), code-name "Mercury"</div><div><br></div><div>400 MHz Power PC G 4, 640 MB SDRAM, OS X 10.4.11</div><div>Soon will get larger hard drive.
