Well, I have one ole laptop I might check then. :P I thought it was surely the power supply (luckily a daughter board for thinkpads...); but before I go digging into another ThinkPad to pull that peice, I'm going to check the clock.... 

I remember when i was disassembling, that dam clock battery wouldn't unplug and I kinda yanked hard to get that sucker out of there. Since two of you described this situation, I hope to gosh that its just the battery. Don't think so, but I'll be posting a thank you to Hustler and you if so!!! :P
