I'm glad things are looking up for you
Tangarine. I've got a good feeling about that PMU reset. The fact you kept the battery in a bag is good because a naked battery in a freezer would have become very wet and possibly short circuited (destroyed) any laptop it made contact with.
I'm fully aware that my argument is flawed because it's hard to tell how serious people are when they recommend solutions on these boards but there's not much we can do about it.
I suppose some good has come of this in that people will now know
not to put batteries in the freezer.
FWIW,
popsandfriends is a newbie according to this board and whilst that only means a lack of posts, it's sometimes a good idea to take a newbies advice a little light-heartedly. Of course, that's definitely not always the case, there are many newbies out there with brilliant advice so this argument remains pretty flawed.
