Laptop not turning on at all
Hey everyone,
Laptop : HP Pavillion g6
OS installed : Windows 7, Deepin 2014
Last Shutdown : Aug 17, 2014 , 05:00 AM
Last State of system: Was Running smoothly Deepin 2014.
It was only when I realized that my system was feeling overheated somehow and its fan wasn't seem to be running at full speed. I thought the problem of dust jamming the fan causing overheat. So, I opened it, following the Disassembly advised by HP in manual[Online]. I did everything as per manual, cleaned the fan and other HW as well. It was when I assembled it and Powered it, I found that Power LED lit but no display at screen. I checked any loose connection for display and others, tried again but in vain.
Third time, I witnessed Caps lock blinking three times and pause and again so. I checked HP portal for the same and found that the problem could be with the RAM Module. So, I tested the RAM[4gb stick] into my other laptop and it worked fine. I then plugged it into my HP system, but nothing happened. I used my other system RAM as well but in no success.
However, I did noticed that the whole base[laptop base from inside facing upward] and every HW having metal part was receving the current from the power cord. I found that the internal socket[HW] that receives power from Adapter[Plugged into system] was in contact with metal part of laptop base and so, whole laptop was having the current. I separated the HW socket from base[remain plugged to Motherboard] and gor rid of current in whole laptop. But this time, I found no LED[orange or white of connected power chord] state and my system wasn't starting at all, let alone understand the previous CAPS Lock Blinks. I tried with battery only as well but nothing pleasant came out. I also unplugged any power souce and holded out power button for a while.
FInally, I wonder whether the motherboard is now at fault, but if this is the case then why CAPS Lock three blinks?
One more thing, I wasn't wearing anything in my legs[shoe or something] but I made sure that I don't end up touching the ground while handling the HW. May be occasionally it happened. Could it be in relation with fault.
If Motherboard is faulty now, how do I check which part is at fault and what will be the cost to get it replaced in India.
RAM,HDD are perfectly fine.
Most likely you damaged motherboard , and another one will be 2x amount of laptops price.

Laptop not turning on at all! Charger adapter is working fine....what's wrong?
PLEASE HELP!
My HP Envy 17 laptop is not turning on at all. It's been 1 month since this problem and within that month I've tried doing the following:
I checked the AC adapter by plugging it on my PC (HP brand) and my adapter seems to be working well.
I have tried the hard reset (hold power and beats buttons for 8 to 10 seconds) MULTIPLE TIMES and still not working.
When I plug the AC adapter and attempt to switch the laptop back on, there is no wifi light, no power light, no light to indicate the device is charging. There is also no fan sound (or whatever it is I've seen some people say they hear when they try to reset). There is absolutely no sign of life! And I'm worried.
I have not attempted to remove the non-removable battery as I hear it voids the warrant. (although seeing as I bought it on ebay brand new, I don't think it came with a warranty...not sure).
What are my options? and what could possibly be causing this problem?
PLEASE HELP!!Hi Jemini3,
I'll be honest I am not sure how easy a fix that is. In the Maintenance and Service guide on page 73 it will show you how to remove the power connecter. However, you do have to remove the battery, subwoofer, hard drive and top cover. All the directions are included on how to do that, so if you are up for DIY project all the information is there. The part number for the piece is 665907-001.
You can always try a local technician or can call HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or visit this link if you are outside North America, there would be a charge as it sounds as if you are out of warranty.

Laptop not turning on at all. PLEASE HELP
Hello, last night i was on my laptop and it was working fine. I turned it off then in the morning i noticed the the hp logo on the back was on but the computer was off so I disconnected the battery then reconnected it and pressed the power button then nothing happened. When i tried to hard reset it without the battery I noticed that when I plugged in the power cord into the computer i noticed the charging light flashed then turned off but when I unplugged it the charging light glowed then died (when i did this with the battery in no lights turned on). When every I try to turn it on with or without the battery nothing happened; no lights, no sounds, no nothing.
Please help. Thank you in advance.Did you try a different charger to see if it isn't a charger problem?

About 30 minutes ago, I was adding some music to the ipod Nano. Everything was working fine. Now, the ipod will not turn on at all. When I connect it to the laptop with the USB, the computer does not even recognize it. The screen has a fant image of the plug on it and it says connected. I followed the procedures for disconnecting it when I was finished with it earlier. Any idea what is going on here???
ThanksIt probably needs to be reset. The procedure is different for different Nano models: http://www.apple.com/support/ipodnano/assistant/itunes/

I recently upgraded toSnow Leopard, after that I was given a continual message that I had to reinstall my Internet Cleanup. So I did. Then I turned my computer off and now it will not turn on at all. Help!
See if your Mac will boot from the install DVD.
Then uninstall Internet Cleanup.

I have an iPhone 4 thats i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? Aslo the are both on the same apple id but i dont know if that would help or not.
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created. -
My 160GB ipod classic stopped whilst playing music and will not turn back on despite having almost a full battery. I have tried connecting to itunes and a docking station but will not turn on at all - HELP?!
I've had this from new for 2 years, the battery life is excellent and lasts for days so I know it's not a power issue as it was fully charged that morning. No signs of connection in itunes, it's not showing as a connected device.
Can anyone please help?Hi gscoops,

I just got a new nano and downloaded the most up to date itunes then I plugged it into my computer and it does not turn on at all, no charge image and my computer doesn't even recognize that there is a connection. How do I fix this?
By calling iPod tech support while you are under warranty. You also have 14 days to return it w/no questions asked for a replacement or your $$$ back.

When my phone is not plugged into the charger or computer, it will not turn on at all; even though it is not dead. When it's plugged into the computer, it will go to a white screen with a grey apple icon and then it will turn off again and repeat. IOS7 and iPhone 5.

Try this step and if you cannot get your device into recovery mode there is a chance you have a hardware failure and you need to call apple to see what service options you have. -
My Ipad 1 does not turn on at all. It will not react to any button, and does not sync with plugged into my computer. Ever heard that?
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Happened to me once, about 6 months ago, and a reset got it working again.

My ibook g4 will not turn on at all.
My ibook g4 will not turn on at all the story is: I had it on and with it plugged into the outlet but i had to charge my nano so i unplugged it the computer turn off and the battery was at "100%" and it was inserted in the battery port so i had to take the battery out and left the power adapter on the ibook with it plugged in but it still will not turn and now i removed the adapter from the computer and i put the battery back in and pressed the power on button and it wouldn't still turn on please help!
Does any lights show on the power adapter?
When you press the button on the battery, does that indicate any charge?
When you press the power button, do you hear anything from the iBook, does the screen flicker a second or the hard drive spin?
Have you tried your iBook using another power outlet in your house?
Have tried resetting the PMU? (I am assuming you would have)
