Latitude CP M233ST
Does anyone have a Owners/Operators
Manual for sale or know where I can get one online? I bought dell CP M233STfrom a private seller. Of course no manual, so I'm at a loss as to how to power it on. I'm assuming the button on top of the keyboard, just left of center, is the power on/off button? I was able to get the screen to come on two seperate occasions, but now it will not. The two "LINE' (of 3] at the top of the keyboard will come on and and the first one ( on the left) goes out in 1 second, and the center light goes out in in another 5 seconds. The third green light on the then flashs on/off a second later. That third light then proceeds to flash on/off once every 9 seconds. And the screen will not come on ( Boot? ). Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated very much. Thank you all in advance. Capt. John |

The LEDs are Top Row, Power ON/Drive Active/Battery
Lower Row, Numlock/CapsLock/ScrollLock The power Button is Upper left, above keyboard. If the battery light is blinking Green, then it means the battery is trickle charging. Solid Green would be charging, while various Amber states are low battery indicators. The fact that the power button goes out after one second is not good. Something is causing the machine not to turn on. "Yddap" wrote in message . uk... In , Tom Scales opined very noisily: "CAPT. JOHN" wrote in message ... Would Someone please address my problem?
