I would have thought the PRAM battery to be the least likely fix to work! Good catch, RAMmy!!

When you're lucky, you don't have to be good.

Glad it worked out for your tuq!

I am having the exact same issue and was hopeful that a PRAM battery would be the fix. Unfortunately it was not and I think my NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT is hosed. I am going to put in a reasonable replacement and hope that it does the trick.

The replacement card worked and fixed the problem!
