Hi,

This is a known good adapter. It powers the Titanium PowerBook just fine, although it has mysteriously cut out on me several times (this is most likely due to overheating, because it doesn't happen in cooler weather, nor when I ease off on any heavy duty processing).

I am currently disassembling the machine to get to the DC board. I will then examine it and see if it can be repaired, asking you all questions accordingly. If I determine that it's not repairable, I'll replace it.

If the DC board isn't the problem, then the only other component which could be at fault is (gulp) the logic board, which unfortunately isn't cheap (unless I want to take a risk on an untested as-is piece from eBay).

Wish me luck!
