When I first tried to power it up the PS would only click and the PS fan would make a feeble attempt to run. Thought I had been screwed with a DOA, but after some head scratching I replaced the Pram battery on a whim and viola, it fired right up. My impression was that the IIfx was the only Mac that required a good Pram battery to start up, but another bit of useful info.
Yeah, I am hoping that is the case with my Power Mac 9500 which was given to me by fellow 68kmla'er wthww. I have not gotten to try a new battery in it yet.
