ScuzzBlog: Diaries December 2017 Entry 23rd December 2017: Post: 7 Amstrad Notebooks - Numbers 3 and 4 I solved the problem with my first Notebook whilst putting batteries in these two units. What I discovered is that even with the new battery I was getting an error message. So I spent a good while cleaning out the battery slot for the Lithium. What happens is where the old battery has sat for a good while it slighly discolours and dulls the connectors making them unusable. I kinda found this out from the CPC saga with the power switch. I then retrieved the first Notebook which I thought was broken and cleaned and polished the battery terminal in the circular slot and like magic it sprung to life. The first time I put the batteries in the TRS-80 Pocket it didn't work. Until I cleaned the battery housings. The thing beeped when I put the final battery in. Two Notebooks here and both working fine. Sadly the images of the screen are again crap. Just the camera. Never mind. Dead.. Even with the external power supply 2nd of the Notebooks [ No 4 ] Both working time to lock them down
