Turned the laptop off in preparation for a trip last night.

When I turned it on this morning, I hear the fan and HDD spin up. I see one blue light on the power button, one blue light on the front of the unit.

Researched and discovered this is not uncommon.

Reseated RAM (2X1GB). No success.
Reseated HDD, no success.
Replaced lithium battery for CMOS, no success.
Tried fn-esc, fn-f5, fn-f6, no success.

The HDD does not have any activity. The screen is not backlit. There is no indication of POST occurring.

Thanks in advance interwebs!

    Hi...

     

    Try the below steps and see if it works.

     

    Remove the power cord and battery from the laptop.

    Press and hold the power button for 10- 15 seconds.

    Then reconnect the battery and plug in the power cord.

    Turn the laptop on and check if it works.

     

    If it doesn't work, check with the computer manufacturer...
