A135-S2266 shuts down 4 seconds after start

I have tried everything I know to get this machine to start. It had been dormant for about 8 months after shutting down suddenly while browsing the internet. I fully charged the battery and the front panel lights work properly. When I press the start button the fan comes on for about 4 seconds and then shuts down. No video either in the screen or an external monitor. I have tried replacing the memory and disconnecting the hard drive to no avail.I have tried startup on both battery power and external charger power.
Any help will be appreciated.

Many items can cause this to occur.  Shutdown is the unit way of preventing further damage.  Feasible the hard drive is in failure mode. There maybe dust build up around the fan and exhaust ports needing cleaning, check the power adapter and cables for any signs of fraying/split aspects.  You mentioned 'replaced memory' feabile you are using an incompatible module not set to work with that unit. Resetting the hard drive you must ensure that the pin connectors are aligned completely and fully pushed in.  Just some areas for you to work on to see if they resolve the problem.

  • Macbook pro 2012 shuts down right after start up!

    macbook pro 2012 shuts down right after start up. I tried the recovery mode but disk doctor cannot repair Mac osX hard drive.This is the second time that I have to format hard drive and install agin all applications. please advise!

    I am not familiar with "disk doctor" but if you used Disk Utility to repair or reformat the hard disk, and it failed again, it is very likely the drive itself needs to be replaced. It cannot be repaired.
    If Disk Utility cannot repair a hard disk it definitely needs replacement.
    All 2012 MacBook Pro models are less than a year old and therefore covered under Apple's standard one year warranty. Have them fix it.

    Mail application keeps shutting down short after start up - resulting in an error message. how can I repair what is wrong without losing my mail history?

    Will I lose my emails I have on there? I have numerous client email files and can't afford to lose any of them. I do have everything backed up but I'm fearful of losing important client info. What if something happened during the back up and it doesn't have my files?

  • HP DV9700 not booting. Shuts down seconds after pushing power button.

    My  HP Pavilion DV9700, which runs Vista,  stopped working yesterday.  I never makes it to the Windows Startup screen.  Posts messages to screen about which Function Key to press for Setup, Startup Check, etc..   then shuts down.  
    This started a day ago . I do not believe that windows is the issue. 
    I tried doing the hard restart..  blew compressed air in the power supply area..  not change.
    Not sure what to try next.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Hey,
    You can try restoring the BIOS. The "magical key's" are in the document.
    Also, just checking (as not mentioned) that you were able to test with a different AC adapter (without battery).

  • E5-00: Ovi Maps shuts down immediately after start...

    Recently, my Ovi Maps got some sort of error/problem, which I dont understand, nor dont know what to do about it.

    I tried to update to the newest version, when went succesfully. However, the same error remains, it still kepss shutting automatically.
    Does any know what this is causing, and/or how it can be solved?

    @thamaestro
    If you update from OVI Maps v3.04 to v3.06 old map data from 00.01.25.114 has to be deleted and new data from 00.02.42.122 downloaded. Are you saying that you watched new regional map data being downloaded and installed as this takes quite a while?
    If you haven't downloaded new map data, would suggest that you delete E:\cities & .qf file, re-start OVI Maps application upon device to re-initialise and re-create necessary folder structure.

  • Mac book shuts down right after start up

    my macbook shuts off after initial start up

    Assuming no issues with power adapter or power source, do an SMC and PRAM reset. If those don't work, take it in to Apple for service.
    SMC:
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    PRAM:
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Mini shuts down just after start up

    Any advice would be appreciated.
    My mini seems to start up OK (chime, light, no flashing) but after a few seconds, it shuts down. The monitor never has a chance to come on. After repeatingly trying to turn it on, it eventually does come on with no visible problems.
    I have unplugged and repluggd cables, removed connections to my USB network, reset the PRAM, checked drive capacity, checked keyboard for stuck keys, ran a virus checks, etc. I have no software that automatically comes on at start up rather than Norton Antivirus.
    I am using a USB hub and it powers up when the computer does and shuts down at the same time. It, however, is self powered and the Mac Mini acts the same way even when disconnected from the hub.
    OS: 10.4.8
    Machine Name: Mac mini
    Machine Model: PowerMac10,2
    CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
    Number Of CPUs: 1
    CPU Speed: 1.5 GHz
    L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
    Memory: 1 GB
    Bus Speed: 167 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: 4.9.4f1
    My set up has been working well for a year. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    Your power management unit (PMU) settings may have become corrupted. See this Apple note to do a reset: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300574 . When you say you reset the PRAM, is this the procedure you followed?
    Have you tried a safe boot? First unhook everything but a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Boot while holding down the shift key. This triggers some background maintenance that may help get you going.
    If that doesn't fix it, I might try to run the Apple hardware test, if your machine has power long enough to swallow a CD. Insert the first OS X CD that came with your system and reboot holding the option key down. Choose Apple hardware test, and when prompted, the extended test. If you're able to run it, does it tell you anything?

  • My Acrobat 8.1.3 shuts down seconds after opening any document or other activity.

    I have a Dell XPS 8100 operating Windows 7 Home Premium. I haven't used the Acrobat for a while so am not sure when the problem began. But today, when I tried opening several documents (all, or one at a time), Acrobat would shut down within seconds. The same happens when I select any tab after opening Acrobat. I went through the repair both with and without the disc, rebooting each time, but the problem is still there. Suggestions?

    That is really strange and not an expected behavior. Other than the reinstall, I don't really have other suggestions (wish I did). Sometimes when this kind of thing occurs, there is another product that is causing an issue. If you are runnin your AA8 on a 64-bit machine, that may be the issue. I have only heard of success 2 times for that combination, and I am not sure I believe the report in full.
    If you decide to do the Reinstall, then the process is as follows: deactivate, uninstall, remove the Acrobat folder (if any of it is left), run the cleaner http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, reboot, install, activate, update. Typically all of the updates can be done and then reboot, rather than all the extra reboots.

  • ITunes shuts down immediately after start-up, while accessing the iTunes store.  MacBook Air OS 10.6.8

    I cannot access iTunes.  It shuts immediately afyer start-up.  I upgraded to 10.5.1andit gets to the point of contacting the iTUnes store when it shuts down.  Any suggestions?

    Well before you try unistalling itunes and all that try right clicking on it and running it as administrator. It worked for me.
    But in the event you do have to unistall, make sure you consolidate you library first library>organize library>consolidate. Then do all that or you will loose all your playlists, and if you have alot of music on your computer you don't keep in itunes it will be a long process to put everything back in it, or weed out the songs you don't want in there.
    Also if you do the second idea make su eyou restart your computer before you open itunes again.

  • HP 630 shuts down seconds after power on

    HP 630, i3 processor, OS WIN7
    Hello. I hope someone can hel me with this problem.
    After pressing the power button the screen comes on and I can see the black screen with the HP logo in the middle and in the lower left corner ist says "Press the ESC key for startup menu". The boot does not go past this screen ans the notebook shuts down after 30 seconds.
    What I have tried so far:
    Removed HDD and RAM and reinserted them again and tried to boot.
    Results: The same, shutdown after 30 sec.
    Removed battery and power plug and pressed the power button for 30 sec. Then I connected the power (only) and tried to boot again.
    Results: The same.
    Tried to boot without HDD.
    Results: Error message "Boot device not found..." and shutdown after 30 sec.
    Booted into bios and set the defaults. I have to be quick because I have only 30 sec for making changes before it shut down again.
    Results: The same.
    Tried to boot from live flash disk drive with linux mint.
    Results: The flash drive is detected and I see the same black screen with the HP logo. It seems to me that the system freezes at this point bacause flash drive led stays on and I am unable to enter the boot menu anymore by pressing ESC key. After 30 sec.shutdown.
    Any help is very apreciated. Thank you.

    Hello @Mainzer ,
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
    I understand you are experiencing an issue with your notebook. However, since this is a commercial notebook, you should post your issue on the notebook board of the HP Enterprise Forums for a better answer.

  • Satellite A200 23W shuts down seconds after pressing power button

    Hi all :)
    I have just bought a Toshiba Satellite A200 23W portable computer some hours ago.
    I turn it on and i let it finish all the Vista installation.
    After finishing Vista installation it asket to resturn the laptop and from that moment the laptop is "dead".
    After pressing Restart computer (from Vista) the computer shut down with no problem but it never restarted!!!
    After waiting some minutes i tryed to start it over by pressing the power button.
    Now when i press the power button i can hear the HDD working and most of the time before i can see something on screen the laptop shuts down!!
    Now i notice that both the battery indicator AND the DC IN indicator are flushing and stopping flash at moments.
    From reading the manual i would assume that the DC IN indicator should not flash at all though.
    I have tryed to unistall the battery and try to boot the laptop but in that case i can not even listen the HDD starting up!!!
    I have try to unplag and replag the power cable (in the wall socket as well as in laptop) but again no result.
    Any ideas of what has happened?
    Many Thanks

    I do not know what is wrong there and, in my opinion, it should not be so important for you. Contact your dealer as soon as possible and talk with him. Explain the situation. Maybe you will get new notebook. If not please contact nearest authorized service provider and let them check your notebook.
    The notebook is brand new and it must work. Please do not wait too long.

  • Notebook shuts down shortly after start-up!

    I have a slight puzzle on my hands. I was working on a DV5-1012EA which had a damaged palm rest/touchpad. I found a replacement and fitted it fine. I had the notebook running fine and decided to run windows update. It all seemed fine but after a restart (which seemed normal after a windows update) it then decided to shut down. I tried a few restarts but no joy.
    I then used a recovery disk but it was halfway through the second "loading files" and it shut down.
    I ran the system diagnosis test via ESC menu and the memory tested fine, it shutdown half way through the HDD test.
    I tried to boot a Linux live disk with no HDD but once again it failed.
    I booted into the BIOS but after 3 mins it shutdown again
    I have tried separate HDDs and memory but it makes no difference. The system just shuts down.
    Could it be a coincidence this occurred after the Windows Update? I have changed the hardware so any conflict caused by the update would not be there.
    I can only think it is overheating the CPU and/or GPU and hence it shuts down? Perhaps all the work of dismantling the until to replace the touchpad/palmrest dislodged the heat sink/thermal paste?
    Please can someone advise me because I want to get this thing running again and back to my friend?
    Thanks in advance

    If you boot into the BIOS and let it sit there (don't run diagnostics) does it still shut down?
    If so, I would assume it's overheating or there's some other circuitry problem.

  • System shuts down immediately after starting

    I have performed a system copy using a procedure that worked great for me in the past. The target was an new empty iSeries that has never been used before.  Everything seemed to copy just normally.
    The problem is this:
    I log on as <SID>OFR and start the system with option 2 from the R3TASKS menu.   The usual work process jobs start up and immediately shut down.
    The WP jobs have this in the job log:
    CPC1224
    Message . . . . :   Job ended abnormally.
    Cause . . . . . :   A SIGKILL signal was received for the job. The action for the signal was to terminate the job.
    Any suggestions of how to determine the cause here?
    Thank you
    Alan

    Jurgen,
    Thanks for your reply.  You are right, the key was in that file. (Volker also pointed me in that direction). For some reason it had a name for my server that was not in my CFTGCP #10.
    WARNING => DpNetCheck: NiHostToAddr(PTC02.PTC) failed (rc=-2)                                                   
    I do not know where it got that address from.  It is close to the correct address but because it was not exactly correct the network access failed.  Once I made the change the jobs stayed up.
    On to to the next problem....

  • MSI GT70 2PC shut down shortly after start

    I bought MSI GT70 2PC-1889CZ Dominator. BIOS E1763IMS.51B, the same problem with BIOS E1763IMS.51V. There is one SSD disk there and one HDD.
    And problem? When I press the power button, my NB automatically turns off during 2-3 sec (before starting windows 8). But when I press the power button again, it starts without problem. I have the same problem everytime. First try - turn off, second try - no problem. My nb never turns off during playing games, or working in windows, only shortly after I press power button. I tried other battery (the same model), this problem occurs without plugged charger and with plugged charger too...

    Try update IRST driver.
