I have a Dell E4310, about 2 years old. When I connect the charger just to a power socket the green light on the charger comes on but when I plug the other end into the laptop the green light on the charger goes off, I have taken the battery off the laptop and it still does the same thing, and in both cases the laptop will not power up and no light appears on it.

HP Pavilion dv6-6155ee Entertainment Notebook
Today i have found that when plugging the mouse in one of the USB ports on the right side .. it does not work but the mouse gives light .
I tried it on the USB Ports on the left side .. it works well ...
I'm trying to find out why my HP Pavilion dv1000 is randomly shutting down when I'm working on it...and when it does, sometimes I can't turn it back on without first popping the battery out and then putting it back in...
When it fails to re-start, I press the power button and all the little blue lights just flash for a second, and I hear this chirpy sound from inside the laptop...
So what I did was setup some logs with XP's Administrative Tools - Performance, to monitor the processor, memory, cache, etc, and then I will look at them to see what happens just before it shuts down.
I am no pro at this so this method is very experimental, I just started doing that this morning.
So does anyone know of this kind of problems? I read it might be a RAM problem,
it is not the battery, as it happens even with the battery out, just on AC power.
Does someone know of a diagnosing utility I might use, that would pinpoint just what happens before it shuts off?
The specs are
1.7 GHZ Pentium M, 1 GB RAM, Intel Graphics 900, windows XP SP 3
I have an HP Compaq nx7400. I've had it for over 3 years now. I've never changed its battery ever since I bought it.
Specs: [url]
Over the past few weeks, I've been having an unusual problem. Whenever I plug the AC adapter to my laptop, the whole laptop performance - from the second I switch it on - is very slow. The moment I pull the AC adapter from the laptop, it instantly operates at a normal and fast speed again!
I figured that it must have been a problem with the AC adapter (it's had its fair share of use - being swung around and dragged to lectures...). So I ordered another one off Ebay. Today, I got the new adapter and when I plugged it in, the laptop only went on AC power. It worked fine - fast as normal. However, it was not charging - just on AC power. I am starting to question if the adapter was really as "genuine" like it was advertised on eBay. But anyway... after about 4 hours with the new adapter on AC power, it stopped recognizing the battery altogether and alerted me with a Critical Battery sign. Of course, a few minutes later, it went dead on me - the laptop switched off. It was as if I removed the AC adapter myself, only I hadn't. Now, I am trying to plug it in again (the new one), to see if it will be able to power up again and it just won't respond at all.
On the other hand, when I put the old AC adapter, the laptop switches on but doesn't charge. Again, it is extremely slow with the adapter on, and fast when I pull the wire out. Only for a minute or so until it dies on me again...
Anyone ever resoldered the ac adapter plug on this laptop? Pics?
View 6 Replies View RelatedToday I tried to turn on my laptop but the power on light only blinked.
I have tried hard resetting it by taking out the battery and holding the power button for 30 seconds.
The button power button, f12 key, and cd button keeps blinking unless i take the battery out.
The ac adapter is working and I think the battery is ok because the led is blinking while i have no ac connected.
Recently got a new battery and no problem. A short while later won't power up. This is my fiance's machine and she said no warning before just won't start. if the most likely problem is now the Power supply is shot?

View 1 Replies View RelatedRecently installed Windows 7 on the notebook, maybe a couple days, started the laptop up one morning and it went into a network boot loop. Went into the bios, and it said no ide device. Popped the hard drive into another notebook, it sees the hard drive (but thinks it's empty), sees it in Win 7 setup as well as in Ubuntu. How do i go about troubleshooting what could be wrong w/ the dv1000.
I figure it's either an issue w/ the motherboard or w/ the hard drive connector if the hard drive works fine in the other notebook.
I have my friend's dv1000 witch took a dump on him the other day. The lights turn on, but it wont post or do anything?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a DV1000 here. It will shut off by itself (over heating?) and no longer recognizes the Hard Drive (even when booting from XP install cd).
This sucker has one of the recalled batteries.
Do you all think that the battery has caused the HD problem? I hope it fixes the turning on and off prob (there seems to be a lot of fan issues on this guy too, but I think the battery overheating has caused most of these overheating/fan issues)
I should be getting a new battery soon. As far as the HD issue:
I have an old Sony Vaio (wish that guy didn't die on me, it was pricey) this a 5200RPM IDE drive. I also have an old Dell Inspiron 3800 with a IDE drive as well.
-Anyone know if either of these HDs will be able to replace the current HD in my HP?
My first month with this brand new notebook was problems it gave me a blue screen and shut down on me. I thought it was normal being that it was my very first notebook. My hp pavilion notebook is only 3 years old but it now it has a blinking caps light and a orange light on the wireless key. I have tried to hard reset it but nothing works. I was use to it shutting down on me and restarting again but this time it would not come back on. I call Hp tech and now I'm being told this computer is obsolete and can't be fixed.

I have an Acer Aspire 7740-6656 that shows no signs of life. I have tried removing and replacing the battery as well as trying different locations to plug into power. I have even tried removing battery and power supply and holding start buttom 30 seconds. Except for a green light on the power supply cord, still no signs of life. What if any are my options?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIt is now charging and all but when I try and boot all that happens is the the Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock lights turn on for about a second or 2 then they turn off. Also the "charging" light extinguishes when the others light. I get no beeps, fans or anything.
Now my buddy, said that he did a similar replacement on his daughters laptop and that "the board needed reprogrammed afterwords"?? I'm not sure what he means by this .....
The adapter is plugged into a good plug, all connections are good. Blue LED light comes on when the adapter is plugged into the wall. However, when I plug the adapter into my XPS 17 (L702S) the blue LED light goes off....

Model- 15-e084ca(windows 7 ultimate)
I recently changed my window from 8 to 7 ultimate and i noticed my grahics adapter has changed from AMD radeon 8650G to standard VGA graphics adapter. Why is that and how do i change it?
When I plugged in my adapter to charge my laptop, it didn't respond to it. The light on the adapter is on, but the battery just wont charge.
I changed the AC adapter as a Hardware problem, but I couldn't change the battery because it is built-in.
On the other side of problem - I mean as a Software problem :
1. I tried to restore the system -from Backup and Restore - till the first point but nothing happened except it restored the first password . . !
2. I tried to make a restore from Dell DataSafe local Backup, but the system said the adapter and the battery must both plugged where the adapter doesn't respond at all.
3. I tried with Ubuntu Operating System (Linux), when I thought that problem Might be from Windows 7.
4. I upgraded the BIOS drive.
5.. I set the BIOS setting to the default - F2
When I plugs the AC Adapter the percentage never reduce, but the hours remaining changes, exactly shows (829 hr and 48 min (20%) remaining).
I bought a dell inspiron 14z 5423 a two month ago, today morning I press the power button and nothing! no reaction no sound!
When the ac adapter on, no light on the dell. but on the adapter green light. Its ultrabook and i can not eject the battery.
My Venue 11 charging with original 23w charger shows Alert on boot.
A 3w AC poweradapter has been detected, wich is less than the recommended Latitude xx 23W AC adapter originally shipped. etc ...
My laptop(Inspiron N 4050) works fine last night and since the battery went down, i turn off without any problem and when i plug the charger the adapter light went off. and it 's not getting charge.
I got the same problem earlier also and i fixed it with my international warranty. but from that date only 4 months have gone and i got it again. but last time i got an error message. but this time i did not get anything just got off normally.
We have a Pavilion g6-2334sa notebook pc, 9 mos old. Never tried to use DVD before. When inserted, DVD turns but doesn't automatically run. When searched for in myPC, it shows in the available drives, with the DVD highlighted. Tying Open, it goes as far as showing Audio_TS and Video_TS. Clicking on Video_TS shows files currently on the disk, in this case 69. If I click on any of these, it takes me to Video tools rather than running the file. So, unable to get beyond this stage to actually get the DVD to play. CD's work fine by the way.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Dell Inspiron M501R will no longer boot up - its shows a black screen and repeatedly beeps 7 times. I understand this means the mother board has failed. The service tag is <ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy> - its waranty has recently expired.
Interestingly, if you google "Inspiron M501R" google suggests "Inspiron M501R 7 beeps". So I'm guessing this laptop has been designed to fail soon after the waranty expires.
I have written a letter to BBC Watchdog asking how long a laptop can be "expected" to last and whether this would be covered by the UK Sale of Goods Act.
I got a mid 2009 MBP last week, I decided to calibrate its battery based on apple instruction, I charged it fully, after 2 hours I disconnected it for complete discharging, but I left my MBP and it went to sleep for 10 minutes, I turn it on again and finished calibration process, Is it necessary to re-calibrate it because of that 10 MINs sleeping?
