Hi
I am having problems with my c860 ( Cacko 1.23). The power light is flashing when it used to be constant and I am pretty sure the battery is not being charged. i have tried a new battery and the machine boots ok from battery but shuts off when I plug the power cable in. The strange thing is that the battery applet always shows 100%. ( I have reinstalled the ROM) I am concerned that it is the internal fuses that have blown and I cannot face opening up the unit myself. keef |

Hi thanks
i will do that. Strangely enough I was about to send away for repair when i tested it one last time and it seems to be working! I noticed that the battery applet was showing less than %100 ( first time for weeks) - plugged in the power and it is now charging away. I wil still do some research to try and find out what went wrong. keef |
