Hey guys, I have a white Macbook from around 2007 I believe, its outdated in hardware but so is everything else in 2007, but it has served me well and is being used as a media player with my music and movies and such. The problem I've been facing for a while is the battery. I realize a lot of you guys are PC die-hards, so for one, please no fan boy answers, I'm asking a question I don't want answers like "Macs suck" or something like that. Honestly, I'm really not liking Apple to much but that's personal preference and besides the point, I still need to get it working. Here's a quick run down: I absolutely can not start my MacBook without plugging it in to the wall, and once it is started up and on the desktop the battery indicator shows that it is being charged for a brief few minutes and then says something to the effect of "Battery Not Detected." Its plugged in, everything has been checked to make sure it is in fact plugged properly, yet I still have to have the MacBook plugged in at all times. I have Googled this situation many times and I am not the only one either. Many have the exact same problem. Some people say resetting PRAM and such would fix it but it does literally nothing. Apparently its a Logic Board issue, which calls for a 500$ replacement part for a laptop I only paid 600$ for to begin with. I'm starting to wonder if by any chance that the perhaps the battery is fine, but the connector that leads from the battery to the Logic Board has failed, or glitched. Like I said, the battery appears as charging as soon as the mac is booted up but then displays as "Battery Not Detected" shortly after. Any ideas on how I would be able to check if its battery issues or logic board related? Thanks, any help would be great. Again, no annoying fanboy-ism please, its a piece of hardware, not anything worth fighting over.
