Won't run on battery?

  1. PaulS - 4 March 2006

    I have a 1.33 PB running 10.4.5

    It's just decided not to run on battery and does a hard shutdown when the power is removed.

    Battery has been giving me a couple of hrs of use before recharge. Even at 90% it absolutely shutsdown when the charger is removed. Last time I eased it off & it ran for a few minutes before it just stopped.

    Greatly appreciate any ideas.
