Dv9812us Laptop will not startup

I have a Pavilion dv9812us.  The problem is that when I turn on the laptop,  all of the LEDs (minus the caps LEDs) flash on and the fan kicks on for a sec.  Then it turns off.  It then repeats this cycle of on and off over until I unplug the AC adapter and remove the battery.  This occurs in every combination of powering up (ac+battery, battery only, ac only).
What this tells me is that it is trying to power up, something interrupts the process, so the computer re-tries to boot up after shutting down, but the same error occurs so its a cycle.  The error occurs before there is any screen activity.  Based on another thread I did tried to reboot the computer without the HD in, but that wasn't the problem.
There had been signs of thing happening before this.  The power button would not respond after it went into hibernation.  In those instances I would have to remove the battery to get it to turn on.  This led me to believe that it was a battery problem at first, but now it seems like  a bios or motherboard problem.  But, I'm not sure.  Is there a fix?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Laptop will not startup.. please help!!

    I have a L505D-S5983 w/ Windows 7 that will not start up. when i turn the power on everything looks good, the Toshiba screen pops up like always, then this black "Windows Error Recovery" screen pops up and gives me 2 options 1) Launch Startup Repair and 2) Start Windows Normally. ive dealt with this issue many times on many computers and either option always gets the computer running, but with this machine whenever i press "Start Windows Normally", the screen with the little wavey Windows flag pops like its loading up for about 15 seconds then the computer automatically restarts to the Toshiba screen. when i click the "Launch Startup Repair" option it shows a small progress bar at the bottom of the screen for about 5 seconds then goes to a completely blank black screen with only the arrow pointer showing and just stays there. ive let it sit for over an hour like that and nothing changes. i did a memory diagnostic check which did nothing. im a novice w comps so i dont know what to do. i lost my backup recovery CD so that wont help. could i download one somewhere? would that fix my problem? im so frustrated.. ive had nothing but problems with this laptop since the day i bought it. but i need it running asap. i greatly appreciate any help!!!

    first, don't panic!  just kidding
    if you have not already made recovery discs then you will have to order them from toshiba.  that is, unless we are able to use the hidden partition to restore to out-of-box state.  Before that though, you should try a few things as going to out-of-box is going to compeltely wipe everything off of your computer. 
    turn off computer, then when you turn on, spam (hit once ever second) the f8 key and see if you can get into emergeny boot options menu.  If it doesn't go in first try, try at least 4-5 more times as it's all about timing the f8 key.  if successful, try to boot into safe mode.  if you have made it that far, post back.

  • Satelite pro L350=S1701 Laptop will not load (VISTA32)

    My laptop will not load whatsoever , an initial shutdown might be to blame.
    The message on screen suggests that the  system registry is missing or corrupted. 
    In addition,its showing  Status:  0XC00000E9    and File:  \windows\system32\config\system 
    The screen message is asking to use the  Windows installation disc ,and then use the repair mode,  but I cannot find this disc.

    Status:  0XC00000E9    and File:  \windows\system32\config\system 
    The System hive supplies an important branch of your registry. If you haven't yet, try Last Known Good Configuration on that menu to use a previous version
       Using Last Known Good Configuration
    Otherwise, try this.
    On the Advanced Boot Options menu, choose Repair Your Computer.
    When you reach the System Recovery Options menu, choose Startup Repair.
    If that doesn't do the trick, go back to the System Recovery Options menu and do a System Restore.
    Let us know how it goes.

  • Laptop will not power on when power button is pressed

    I have a Pavilion m6
    model: m6-1045dx
    Laptop will not power on when I press the power button. It is fully charged. The only light that will come on is the light indicating that it is fully charged. I have tried removing the  battery and then putting it back in but that did not work. I use this laptop for college and it is time to go back to school. Please help!

    Try a hard reset, works sometimes.Disconnect all external devices first.
    1-remove power cord and battery
    2-press power button for 30 seconds
    3-reinstall only power cord for first startup.
    4-try power on

  • Toshiba model# PSC2EU-05400L will not startup

    I have a one year old Toshiba laptop that will not startup. Battery is good, power supply is good. green LED is on  left front of laptop.. No fan noise, screen stays black. laptop has only been turned on maybe ten times. Unfortunately it is just out of warranty.
    I don't think my next machine will be a Toshiba if this is not an easy fix.

    If you truely do not hear the fan come on (and you should) or the hard drive (again, you should) when you boot up, and only the green power light is on, then I would think it may be either a power issue or a thermal issue (leaning toward former).  thermal issue usually the computer comes on, then immediately shuts off. 
    have you tried taking the battery out and holding down the power button for 20-30 seconds, then reinstall battery.  try to boot up.  If this doesn't work, try taking the battery out and just booting up with the power adapter plugged in.  If that doesn't work just try battery alone.  Post back

  • I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my simplePass identity protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE.

    I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my HP SimplePass Identity Protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE. It worked with the previous Firefox version but now when I use the internet, it doesn't even acknowledge I have the scanner. When I run my finger over it, it opens the settings panel but does not allow use of the already saved information or allow new information to be entered. I need this corrected. Any suggestions?

    I asked this same question, and just received a response:
    "Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases
    for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for
    Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do
    not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep
    DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona
    is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications.
    In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after
    Mid-April of this year.
    We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
    In other words, there will be NO update.

    My Laptop will not start - it's a 4 year PC and it's runing on XP.
    When I start I get this message" The Logon USer Interface DLL failed to load - Contact your administratoe to replace the DLL or restore the original".

    Thanks,

    Hello -
    Try this:
    - When you receive the error message that is described in the "Symptoms" section, click Restart.
    - Press F8 repeatedly as your computer begins to restart. This triggers the Windows Advanced Options menu.
    - Use the arrows on your keyboard to select Last Known Good Configuration, and then press ENTER.
    (Also, You can try Safe Mode and do a "System Restore" from there.)
    ***Last Resort, you will have to edit the registry and this may prevent your computer from booting***
    - boot your system and tap away at F8
    - Select Safe Mode
    - After Windows loads into safe mode.
    - Start >> Run >> “regedit” Press Enter.
    - Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
    - Look for the GinaDLL Key
    - Select and delete this key and this key ONLY. DO NOT delete the entire Winlogon folder of keys.
    - Close Regedit with the RED "X"and reboot the machine

  • Ok, so basically my charger fell apart on my MacBook pro(2010) and I didn't have the money for a new charger, I got it in the states too if that's relevant. Basically my laptop will not charge, I bought a new charger yesterday and it's still no-use

    Ok, so basically my charger fell apart on my MacBook pro(2010) and I didn't have the money for a new charger, I got it in the states too if that's relevant. Basically my laptop will not charge, I bought a new charger yesterday and it's still no-use,not charging . No green or orange light coming on on the new charger either.

    It is one of the items that Apple gets criticized at regular intervals. The MagSafe connector is proprietary and unlicensable, so the company has a lock-in on the power options. And as you have now found out, your hijinks trying to avoid buying an expensive new charger may have caused more damage and led to a total no-charge condition.
    If lucky and no physical damage has occurred (there IS a fuse in there somewhere on the circuit boards), maybe resetting the SMC can restore charge functionality, provided there is still enough juice: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • Laptop will not boot, no display and flashing caps key

    Hi,
    I am attemping to repair a laptop for a family member, their baby threw up on the keyboard, although after they cleared it up they said it was still working (booting into windows, mouse working etc). They took the old keyboard out themselves but it looks like they were a bit heavy handed with it; there are quite a few scratches on the metal plate underneath the keyboard and the plastic surround. I have not yet been able to confirm if the laptop was still booting after the keboard was removed.
    Anyway - I went to their house to do what I thought was going to be a relatively easy job, simply connecting the new keyboard. Now the laptop will not boot, there is no display on the screen and we get a flashing CAPS/F12 key. I have looked at the table for LED codes, but I am not sure if it is one flash lots of times, or six flashes. The warranty has also run out so sending to HP not really an option.
    There are six short flashes, with quite a long pause between each one. After this the laptop powers off and after another pause turns itself back on and starts over. If it is one flash (CPU) then I guess they must have shafted something on the board by shoving the screwdriver in underneath the keyboard to prise it away from the laptop. There is however not an awful lot of stuff exposed - there is a fairly substancial metal plate under where the keyboard would sit to protect the laptop.
    I am hoping at the moment that it is showing six flashes - which is BIOS authentication error. I am not that familiar with HP products, but could this be caused by installing a non-genuine keyboard? The keyboard looks the same from the top, but was bought for less than a tenner on ebay.
    If anybody has any ideas that would be great.
