Note that the A3000 has a Ni-Cd battery sitting on the motherboard (left side), and it will almost definitely leak and damage the motherboard if it's not removed. If it has already leaked, you can remove the battery and try to clean up the mess that it has left, the machine will usually be repairable (depending on the level of corrosion). These batterys tend to start leaking once the machine is not used for a long time. Regards, Ross..
