Nov 6, 2013 7:18 AM in response to 1Tranceboyby Curt Wiederhoeft,For the Aluminum line,it's easy for the card to become dislodged if the Powerbook falls on its right edge (as you look at the screen). The card is dead simple to access from below.Just remove the battery, and you can see the card. Push the connector closed. All done.
If it's a Titanium, you can check ifixit.com for directions on accessing the card, but it's much less likely to disconnect, so I'm guessing you have the Al model.
