HP Mini 2133 notebook will not start up but recharging light works and on off and hard disk light

My HP Mini 2133 will not show anything on the screen however the power light and hard drive lights all work and the fan comes on and it will charge up anyone help

It could be the power supply, shorted device of any kind attached (bad printer, flash drive, keyboard, mouse, network connection), memory problem, video card fan not spinning and the video card could have overheated, bad capacitors (rounded or leaking a brown or dark substance). The first think you should do is make sure it is not under warrantee.  If it is, contact HP.  If it isn't, remove the cover and inspect the board for bad capacitors, fans not turning, disconnect all non essential items like the hard drive, DVD, floppy if you have one, all external devices (yes the monitor) and turn on the computer. Does it appear to stay on? If yes, shut it down by holding in the power button for 5 or more seconds or flipping the power switch on the power supply or pulling the plug. Connect the monitor and then one item at a time leaving the hard drive with your important data as the last item. If it didn't stay on. Try to use only one piece of memory and try each memory slot, try the next piece etc. If that doesn't work, the best guess is the power supply (if you have an ohm meter - test the power supply first).

    My Mini 110-1050NR just died... When I try to turn it on the Power Switch LED, the WiFi Switch LED and the Hard Drive LED just flash on and off. There's no specific count. They continue to flash until I disconnect the battery.

    Booting From An OS X Installer Disc
    1. Insert OS X Installer Disc into the optical drive.
      2. Restart the computer.
      3. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the "C" key.
      4. Release the key when the spinning gear below the dark gray Apple
          logo appears.
      5. Wait for installer to finish loading.
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Mac mini 10.4 will not start help me please!!!

    Please help somebody. I've tried to turn my mac mini on today and it's suddenly decided that it doesn't want to play any more!
    I keep getting the grey screen and a message coming up saying that i need to reset.
    I have followed all the options of taking out printers etc, safe booting, resetting PRAM etc etc.
    All I have left to try now is re installing from the software CDs.
    But that's where my problem gets worse. I've been pulling my house apart for hours but cannot find my CDs anywhere.
    Does anybody now how or where I could get replacement tiger CDs?
    Thanks for Reading.

    While performing disk maintenance is advised from the boot install discs of
    the correct version Mac OS X your computer has installed, it may be possible
    to resolve a few startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility
    and also attempt some repairs with a command known as fsck.
    The latter does not require the boot disc version of Disk Utility to perform a
    few basic functions, it does however require using a single-user startup.
    In Tiger 10.4.x, it is always better to be able to use the correct Disk Utility on
    the 10.4 booted installer disc; since fsck is not as thorough.
    "Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility & fsck"
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417 - an Apple Support knowledgebase article.
    This won't fix disk drive corruption, or directory failures; other disk utilities
    are good at doing that; and the installer disc's Disk Utility is a primary tool.
    There are third-party disk utilities that can do several specific things the
    included Disk Utility on bootable install disc generally won't.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • When trying to open Firefox it trys to connect to restore the prevoius session (not responding) and will not start. I uninstalled then reinstalled and it is still stuck. I have to X the box and use the popup to close the noresponsive program

    Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

    Hi JG14usa,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you attempted an update on your daughter’s iPhone but the update will not complete. For this type of situation, it may be necessary to place your iPhone into recovery mode and restore. Please use the instructions located in the attached article to complete this process.

  • Hp Pavilion 15 Notebook will not start or charge

    I bought this notebook I believe a year ago and at first it had a minor issues of not turning on but it was resolved soon after that. As the year went by no problems what so even I didn't use the laptop too much but it was working well. Recently however I started using it more frequently and installed a few games on it. These games were obviously meant to be played on a high end gaming computer but I worked around tweaking some settings on my computer and besides the CPU being worked at its max the games ran smoothly with minor problems but these were normal considering game crashes happened on even the most top grade pc. However a few days ago after a little while of playing games I closed all my programs and closed the laptop like I normally do and set it on my desk to charge. I come back maybe 2 hours later and it doesn't turn on, no lights, no fan, not even a charging light. I have tried doing a hard reboot take out the battery everything currently as I speak the computer is on my desk with the bottom of the computer open with the hard drive exposed along with other things. I have no idea what is wrong but maybe it's a mother board problem or CPU fried I don't know but I need help and was hoping if I knew what the problem was if I could just order the parts and replace it.

  • ITunes will not start up in Windows XP SP2 and maxes out CPU

    Hello all,
    Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, or if this is a similar problem faced by others.
    I have browsed the forums for hours trying to find a similar issue to my own, and have tried several solutions but none have worked. I have lost track of the amount of times I have re-installed iTunes.
    Having recently aquired an 80Gb iPod Video, I set about re-loading all of my music as 192Kb AAC in iTunes. I have always used iTunes to download music, but this is the first time I have used it so much, having previously used WMP to listen to my music collection.
    At some stage last week it stopped functioning, freezing everytime I started it up, and subsequently forcing me to use Task Manager to quit.
    Sometimes it would just freeze as soon as I clicked in the window, other times it would let me input my sign-in details before freezing whilst 'Accessing iTunes Store'.
    I did recently upgrade to iTunes 7.2, and decided to upgrade some of my files to non-DRM, and it had been working fine up until some point last week.
    Which is what I really can't understand. I had downloaded 7.2 a week or so before this happened, so could it really be an issue with the non-DRM tracks? I noticed in a previous post this being an issue, and not to upgrade, and so I attempted to install an earlier version 7.1, but still had the same issue with it freezing.
    Something I noticed today was that the Apple web page would not load, as the Quicktime plugin would not initiate. Could it be a Quicktime issue?
    Someone suggested to me it could be a issue with Norton?
    Another suggested it could be down to Automatic Updates.
    Having checked both of these avenues, there don't appear to be any programs downloaded onto my computer that would affect iTunes.
    All of my music is stored on an external USB 2.0 HDD. I can't imagine it being an issue with that, as I can access all of my files on that fine through My Computer.
    Apologies for the long an convoluted issue. Any help will be much appreciated. If I have missed anything I shall post again.
    Regards,
    Matthew Wittrick.

    You can try a couple things. You may wish to try and rebuild your iTunes Library. At times if this gets corrupted it could cause possible freezing when launching itunes or using iTunes.
    Posted below is the article for that.
    How to re-create your iTunes Library
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313
    or
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856
    You will also want to try a basic Uninstall and Install of the iTunes Software. Also ensure you have the latest version of iTunes and Quicktime. If you get the iTunes bundle it will include the update for both.
    You may also wish to create a new user and see what kind of results you get. If the issue is still the same. You may want to follow the article below. It speaks about cleaning out Apple Software and hidden files and folders. Since all your music is on a backup HD you do not have to worry about deleting any of it as it is already backed up.

    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Firefox will not start normally, but will in safemode. How can I fix this?

    Everytime I go to start firefox, it never starts, and tells me it's crashed. It gives me the option to reset firefox or restart it in safe mode. Resetting firefox does nothing, but presents me with the crash again, instantly, the split second firefox tries to run.
    I've reinstalled firefox, restarted my computer etc etc. I don't and never have used any addons / extensions. I've never used anything but the default theme. I do have ~12 things on my favorites list, but that's the extent of it.
    This is frustrating, as I don't like to use IE. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

  • Firefox will not start up even after I uninstalled and reinstalled.

    I even did a system restore to back before the problem started in case it was a OS problem. I did notice a firfox safemode file in system startup which was not the location I installed to. There are icons on my desktop and start menu. I recently switched to Panda Secuity so I uninstalled that and switched back to System Mechanic [used for several years, worked fine with Firefox] to see if it made a difference, it did not. Any help or suggestions greatly apprciated.
