thinkpad booting problem
Hi,
I recently purchased a used IBM thinkpad and am having some problems starting it. Upon trying to power-up the machine, a few of the green lights flash, you can hear what sounds like the fan start for a split second, and the processor or memory grind also grinds for a split second and then everything shuts off completly. The same thing occurs whether I have the batter or the the A/C cord plugged in. The screen does not appear to illuminate at all except for a split second when it make a slight blink. Does anyone have any ideas about the source of this problem and a potential solution. I may try going inside but i want to know what I'm going after first. Thanks, Chris Enns |
