cats running by, jerked the power cord and ibook stopped. I ordered and replaced the dc-in board. Now the ibook runs on power, but will not run on battery. It show 97% but will not charge. battery has all four lights.
Is this a good question?

Perhaps it's your charger... or the reassembly of the iBook. System Profiler->Power will tell you if the computer detects the charger. Recheck all the connections you made (I hope you did this with the battery/power removed, crossed/shorted connections can occur easily if there's power to the board when reassembling.)
