Repair Issues
Prevent Cosmetic Damage
The outside plastics of the PowerBook G3 Series computers are vulnerable to scratches and finger marks from skin oil. To prevent cosmetic damage to a customer’s PowerBook, do not wear jewelry when handling the computer, and wear gloves if you have them available. Wipe fingerprints from the outside plastics with a damp cloth.
Install Microprocessor Board Securely
The microprocessor board can be partially inserted and the computer will still function. However, over time, heat will cause the microprocessor board to lose contact and can cause the system to have intermittent problems such as no booting.
