Well after maybe 8yr sitting doing sod all...
Popped in battery guy i bought black one off had purchased as a spare. So got to be getting on a bit and i expected would have gone high resistance...
Anyway popped it in, clicked case back together (at least with all clips round edge screws are not critical to start). Plugged it in and got power and charge lights on...
After 5min battery light flashed green then orange again and 10 min on and it shows as 3% in main battery. So suspect it ws either switching from charging backup battery or switching from trickle charge mode.
All seems to be working nicely. Not got a cf card handy with wifi and built in drivers but will charge it and shove a WiFi card in tomorrow and give it a wee go. Luckily also looks to have the rom cemonex did with me testing.
