HP/Compaq :: Presario 1200; Plugged In But Won't Turn On
May 31, 2009
This is an old notebook. A Compaq Presario 1200 Series notbeook (1200 XL-101). When I plug in the power cable, the LED lights up, indicating it's plugged in - however absolutely nothing happens if I hit the power button.
I have tried this with or without the Battery in it. In the past this notebook was able to turn on WITHOUT any battery in it if it was plugged in; being directly powered by the power cable.
Does anyone have any input one where I can begin to fix this? I don't want to bring it in to a shop; I'd rather fix it myself. I'm handy with hardware so I can open and replace parts. I just don't know what is wrong with it.

I'm looking to replace the motherboard on an old Compaq Presario 1200 XL-101 notebook. The part number for the motherboard is 169606-001. I'm looking for a cheap or refurbished one so I can get it fairly cheap ... under $50. The new ones across Google are way too expensive ... and I only found One Broken on eBay.

This 1200 was working several weeks ago, now it will not turn on even with AC adapter plugged in. Battery will not charge.
No green LED lit on laptop front. Unit will not boot with AC adapter attached and battery removed.
Checked AC adapter with multimeter and it appears working OK, get 19.5 volts dc output.

My mother was having some trouble with her laptop, and I was wondering if you guys had an idea of what the problem could be. Basically, it won't turn on, even with the battery plugged into the wall. It is completely unresponsive. The last time she used it was last night, and she said that when she was done, she left it on with the screen down and the battery plugged in.

I have a Compaq Presario CQ60. The Display does not appear to be working. When I turn on the laptop the display remains black. No boot up screen, nothing. I can't go into the bios because I have no screen. The screen remains black. The harddrive appears to be working and all other functions appear to be working but I am not sure because I have no screen.
Â
Is this a known issue with the Compaq Presario CQ60?

if anyone who has an HDX 16t-1200 could tell me what their system board ID is. You can find this out by going into your system BIOS on the main info page on the front it lists your system board id.

I've got a Yoga 11s which is barely a few months old and hasn't seen much use. Having the same problem - it won't power on or charge (powers on only when plugged in). In Lenovo Energy Manager battery status shows "Good" and charging status shows "Battery Connected". WIndows power management icon however, shows Plugged-in, not charging. Never had that problem before either, but it came with the power-on failure so I guess they're related.

My Presario CQ57 (Windows 7 w/ AMD E-300 APU w/Radeon HD graphics) crashed and shut down the other night. Something to do with the display adapter, when I got it fired back up, my wifi wouldn't come on. When I push the wifi button (f12 key), it does nothing, and I can't find my wireless adapter listed in my Device Manager list.

I have an inspiron n4010. Â I replaced the battery and it worked for a couple of weeks. But now, it won't turn on or stay on if it's not plugged in. Â And I can't have it plugged in all the time. Â It says that it's plugged in but not charging.

My Lenovo T500 will not turn on, despite being plugged into the wall. Even when it's plugged in, none of the indicator lights show that the computer is plugged in. It also won't turn on using the battery.

Working on a dell Inspiron b130 laptop. The power is plugged in, and battery is in. The power will not turn on at all, no fan or CPU. The main power light comes on when button is pressed for a moment then goes off. The battery light flashes slowly. The power cord adapter has a light on it and that says its working. I have tried taking the battery out and that does nothing.
I had assumed since its an older laptop that maybe the power was so drained that it needed it to be charged a little to have enough power to turn on. But it's been awhile an nothing yet. Is it trashed? We do have another hard drive around to try would that matter at all?

This was a donation to our kids konnect program. I need to do an assessment but can't get beyond an error message. It doesn't recognize an "ultrabay" and wants me to remove and reinstall it

I am buying a XPS m1550 and I can't decide which screen to get. Should I get the LED or the HD 1920 x 1200 display.....That 1920 display sounds good as I like having lots of windows open...on the other hand LED is better on energy and I have heard a nicer looking screen to view....

I am going to get an xbox 360 in the near future along with a vga cable to play it on my E1705's monitor. The monitor's native resolution is 1900 by 1200 so I was wondering if anyone has tried this before and if the 360 will look good on my laptop's monitor.

The laptop has no AC adapter and a dead battery. I could test the laptop to see if it is working with a non Dell adapter if I was sure of the polarity on the Dell. There are three short dashes under the connector but no + or - symbols. Does anyone know if this laptop has a center pin with positive polarity?

a lot of folks think it will go to 16:9. Will it go down to 1920 x 1080 for the next version of macbook pros 17 inch?
Or will they keep it the same?
The only other alternative is a higher resolution 20x11 or so I forget the exact number

My ancient C500 fan is noisy, a constant slight grindy noise. Its been like this for months and I cant take it anymore. Can I clean or replace it w/o too much trouble or is it time for a new laptop? Looks like I'd have to take off the whole bottom to get at it...which Iwill do, if it will shut the damn thing up.

i have a compaq presario 1500 with a pentium 4 running XP SP3 on it. I am having trouble with keeping it under a good heat, the fan is constantly running high! i know this needs a good clean but the screws to remove the back casing are so small for me to do this! any suggestions of how i can clean inside? or get to th fan through the top by the keyboard?
secondly it tends to crash every now and then, maybe when it overclocks on the cpu?? i am recently trying out a program called speedswitchXP which seems to be slowing it down to an extent! but not solving the issue.
thirdly and finally, my battery only holds charge for around 10 minutes before needing constant wall plugin! i constantly have it plugged into the wall, could this be a result to any of my problems?

got a Presario V2000 that will not boot whatsoever.
Upon pressing the power button, the machine starts up and displays the standard "Windows could not start properly" screen. Every option I choose, from the three Safe mode options, to the Last Known Good Config, to Start Windows Normally will not work.
I choose an option and everything goes smoothly, the Windows XP splash screen pops up & stays there for a few seconds, then goes blanks for a slightly longer length of time before a blue screen pops up. I can't remember the first few numbers, but the rest I'm pretty sure is accurate:
(a series of letters/numbers is here) (Registry File Failure)
The registry cannot load the file
SysCommandSysCom32ConfigSOFTware
or its log or alternate
It is corrupt, (something I cant remember), or not writable
Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump complete
Contact your system administrator or technical assistance.
.....and it pretty much repeats over and over in a continuous cycle like this until I power it off.
What I'm wondering is where exactly the problem lies? On the Hard Drive--where the drive itself needs to be replaced or the OS just wiped and reinstalled fresh.......or is this indicative of a hardware failure...which would mean this lappy is pretty much dead?

On pressing start button, laptop starts, but blank screen comes. After every few seconds, it keeps on rebooting, but nothing happens.
I have tried pressing F10 and Esc button on startup, but nothing happens.
Moving finger over multimedia touch buttons causes them to beep.
Few times, it shows the BIOS, but does not detect the hard-drive.
Very rarely, everything works fine and OS boots and works fine (without any sign of problem).
I replaced RAMs, hard-drive and DVD Reader in other laptop and there they worked absolutely fine.
I even tried removing the battery, connecting external monitor, keyboard, but nothing worked.
BIOS version is F.3D.
When opened, CPU fan and heatsink were dustfree.
Product Specs: HP Presario V6305NR, 1.6 GHz AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-50, 1024MB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm), NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 (UMA)

I have a Presario V2000.
After not using for about 1 week I turned it on so I could clean it from viruses.
Got the battery alert and then it shutdown meanwhile I was pluging the cord in (Targus AC cord with
blue light).
When I connected the AC to the power (not connected yet to the laptop) it "turned on" and still today
shows a blue light. But once I plug it to the laptop the blue light disappears after 3-5 seconds!
Not at the beginning nor the end of this process the laptop will turn on if I press the power button
for 'x' seconds. If I plug the cord, the computer doesn't show any "power light" and then the blue
light from the Targus AC fades off.................
