So, I finally replaced the battery in the 3.5os/3000D/Warp40/64/PicassoII/4gigHD/Zip/CDRom/Scanner. Put the system back together and fired it up to reset the time/date and so on. When I select the month and release the mouse button, the system gurus with an error code indicating Intuition. This happened also when deselecting the place trashcan button in the Format drive command.
What can be done to fix this problem? Beside chucking the whole pile into the trash? :-?
