What do I need to replace on my Powerbook G4 17-inch if the sound is fuzzy after I spilled coffee on it?

Dec 06, 2006 by DashDJ | Posted in Laptops & Notebooks

Hi everyone,

So like I said, I spilled coffee, with sugar no less, on the left side of my beautiful Powerbook G4 17-inch not too long ago. The only thing that is wrong with it now is the sound.

While running my Mac, an intermittent popping or fuzzy sound can be heard and it sounds like it's coming from the speakers. But when I plug in my headphones to the jack on the lower left side of the laptop, the popping and fuzzy sound only comes out of the headphones and not the speakers anymore.

I have put in brand new replacement speakers, but the sound can still be heard. So, my question is, what should I replace?

There are two options I believe: The DC-IN board or the sound card. Both could be the problem, but I'd like to know which one is more likely so I don't have to waste my money. Any help?

Thanks!

A new Powerbook. It will cost almost as much to fix it as it would to replace it. And it still may not work.
Good Luck

MBP Shootout: eSATA adapter cards

21.05.10

Apple and storage vendors haven’t made the use of eSATA elementary on the MacBook Pro line. The first rounds of adapter cards had driver and booting issues that perplexing users and broke with successive OS updates. And a year ago, Apple alone the ExpressCard/34 slot to its 17-inch pro notebook. However, a brand-new review on Lloyd Chambers Mac Performance Guide for Digital Photographers & Playing Addicts site shows that the latest generation of adapters may show a winner.

Chambers reviewed 3 cards: Sonnet’s Pulse SATA Edge card and 2-port Tempo SATA Pro , and Other In all respects Computing’s Slim ExpressCard to eSATA Adapter .

Two of the cards advance a new look to these adapters, an “edge” or “slim” target that sits flush against the side of the MacBook Pro case. This is a very nice opportunity for customers only needing one port. The older style cards stuck out degree a bit, even the ones with only a single port, and I always remove mine before putting my MBP in a sleeve.
