After Hibernation my laptop wont turn on, or off

Wondering if anyone else had this problem. My laptop went into hibernation and then would not turn back on or even with the power button depressed would not turn off either. After trying everything else I could think off I finally popped the battery out and it did shut down, but now I think I have killed it for good and it won't turn back on at all. Does anyone have any ideas? This is an older satellite A65 laptop, about 5 or 6 years old.

You try holding the power button down for a few seconds to turn it back on?
Shouldn't be a problem in Hibernation unless the battery is no good. Should still work in AC power. Could be a motherboard issue if it doesn't post or the power strip if it doesn't turn on at all.
HD should be fine so it's irther the power strip is gone or the motherboard but it shoulkd still "turn" on if its motherboard. I'm pointing alot at the dead power strip in the laptop.
(not talking about power cord or battery but the strip that provides power to everything)

Re: laptop wont turn on

I have a Satellite A215 which just wont turn on. I have the blue light flash on the power cable and on the battery. I have tried taking out the battery and memory.
I have tried to just use the power cord but with no luck please please help got all my pics on laptop and it just wont turn on

Service Center is a good idea, I agree.
At first you may try to determine the cause of malfunction. You say it won't turn on. What do you mean? If no activity can be felt (like noise of the fan, flashing of power-on button or indicator), then, perhaps, smth is really wrong with the mainboard. Did you drop it recently? :-)
Or may be the power-on button stopped working for some reason (like disconnect). In this case you are lucky, I belive they can easily fix it (which is not the case with the mainboard).
If the on-button flashes and the system seems to boot, but you can't see anything - well, something is definitely wrong with the screen. Go to service centre.
Meanwhile, why not extract everything valuable from your hard drive? I believe, It is can be removed easily, and yo can by a USB-adaptor to connect it to any other PC.
Good luck!

HP Pavillion G6 laptop wont turn on or charge - battery light blinks three times - SOLVED

Ok So I was using my laptop on a regular basis. I shut it down the night prior by using the start shut down menu option. The next morning I went to turn it on and nothing. I did though see the side white light by the Ac adaptor plug in blink three times. I decided to purchase a new charger via ebay(8.99). I plugged it in and nothing. So i started reading different threads to help me fix this issue. I did not see,read or find anything that truly helped me figure out what it could be so upon further research I came across this link in the HP site: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01732674&lc=en&product=5242926&tmp... This helped me figure out what the light meant.. Hopefully it can help others who may have this same issue.
So bottom line I did a battery reset. I unplugged every thing from my laptop(battery charger, mouse, etc) I took my battery out of the computer, (pushed in the circle black rubber button (on the back left of my laptop where the seam is) then held down the power button for about 30 seconds then put my battery back into my laptop plugged my new charger in and thus far the battery is charging and the white light is staying on to show a current charging in progress.. Hope this helps anyone else!

Try removing the battery and start it up that way and also do a hard reset which means remove the battery and with no AC adapter connected hold down the power button 30 seconds. Now plug in the adapter and try to fire it up. Yes, the battery can go so dead it keeps the laptop from turning on. It is not common however and quite the longshot. It could possibly even be the AC adapter. Do you have access to another known good one? Lastly, it can be the power jack and even the motherboard. It is really not good for a computer to experience repeated hard power-down shutoffs. If you want to kill a computer that is one good way to do it slowly and painfully. The power jack is a separate part from the motherboard and on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being replace the battery and 10 being replace the motherboard it is about a 6 or a 7. No soldering is required. This is the part you need:

However, I cannot find a manual here. I usually can, but it seems to be hiding. This one will be very close:
G70 manual
A computer repair shop wil likely charge about $100 for the repair.

My laptop shutoff off after being fully charged and wont turn back on

I am in a foreign country and my laptop has been working fine with an adapter. Two days ago, after being fully charged, my laptop shut off and wouldn't turn back on. The battery died and I tried a friends charger to see if it was a problem with the computer or charger and the new burger worked. So I spent the money on a new charger and now the same thing has happened. After being charged it shut off and my new charger has a dim light just like what happened the first time. Any ideas?

Hello there, ChristenC.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
Troubleshooting: My computer won't turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1367
If your computer won't turn on, try each of these steps:
Verify you have a good connection from your Mac to the wall outlet by confirming the power cord and adapter if present are securely connected and plugged in. To check if the wall outlet is working, plug in a lamp or other electrical device.
If the wall outlet is working and you continue to have no power try another power cord or adapter if available. If it works you may need a replacement cord or adapter.
Note: See Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters for further troubleshooting with MagSafe adapters.
Disconnect all accessories that are plugged in to the computer, such as a printer, hub, or other mobile device.
If your Mac supports user-installable memory, solid state drive, or hard drive, and you recently installed any of these, make sure they are installed correctly and are compatible with your computer. If possible, reinstall the original memory or drive into the computer to find out if the behavior persists afterwards.

My HP Pavilion dv6 laptop wont turn on

My HP Pavilion dv6 laptop does not turn on. Problem with my laptop started couple weeks ago. At that time, when computer goes to sleep mode after inactive for some time, power light and led lights stays on but screen is black. I can not do anything else but to press power button for few second and force turn off. If I turn on computer right away then computer will have black screen and nothing happens. If I remove battery and wait for few minutes and connect the power cord directly to computer and turn on then it will turn on normally and work until it goes back to sleep again. But now, its not even turning on at all. So far I tried hard reset, plugged in to different monitor and RAM test but no luck. Again when I turn on, caps lock and num lock lights blink and fan turns on and power lights, volume lights and wifi lights stays on but nothing on screen. Thank you in advance for any help.

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook and having issues with performance. Here is a link to computer will not start. I would start at the top and work my way down. Mine was fixed with reseating the HDD. Others have had it fixed with just reseating the Memory. Here is a video that shows you how to remove and reseat the HDD and memory. Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues. You could reset the BIOS with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings. Which has helped others as it restores the default settings. Plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue. Please let me know how this goes. Thanks.
