My laptop won't turn on when I push the power button.

I tried the hard reset with and without the new battery in it. I left the battery out for 5min, them held the power button in for about 90sec. The power light and hard drive lights come on briefly the shuts off with a small click sound. I have a HP compaq presario F756nr with Vista home premium. Was working ok a day ago. The light around the AC plug lights up blue, and the charge light flashes when the AC charger is plugged in. HELP

My laptop won't turn on when I push the power button, just light on the caps lock key blinking

my laptop hp mini 311-1002TU suddenly hang, and can't to respon anyting from user, then I shut it down by force by pressing the power button, but when I tried to turn it on again, my laptop does not turn on, just the lights in his caps lock blinking, please help to resolve this problem, thanks.

I would suggest keep trying to turn it on and get the blue screen error code to maybe a get clue of precisely what the issue is. Ultimately, the processor likely needs to be replaced in most of these 1-blink situations.
If you have experience taking a laptop apart, here is a link to the Maintenance and Service Guide for your model. Removal and replacement procedures begin in Section 4.
Otherwise, I would recommend taking it to a local repair shop because they may have processors and/or other parts that they can swap in and out to determine if the processor is actually bad or not.

My laptop won't turn on when I pushed the power button what should I do?

When I tried turning on my laptop it wouldn't turn on . I even tried the trick with taking my battery out but It still doesn't turn on . What should I do?!

Hello Genesis_Mariee, welcome to the HP Forums.
It appears that you're notebook isn't power on. I will try to assist you with this.
When attempting to turn on the notebook, do you get any response from it? Any beeps, noises, lights?
What's the model and product numbers for your notebook?
What's the currently install operating system?
I would suggest starting with the following document(s):
Computer Does not Start (Windows 7, Vista, XP)
Computer Does Not Start (Windows 8)
Follow the one specific to your operating system. Please let me know how this goes for you.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

My probably 10 year old MaycBook died. It won't start. When I press the power button, it gets power, but it only lights up and a scratching noise starts like something is spinning. A file folder with a question mark periodically flashes... Help!!!

You don't have a Macbook if you are running OS 9 and it's 10 years old. The first Macbook is an Intel Mac that came out in 2006 running 10.4.x. You most likely have a Powerbook. Try posting in the Powerbook forum.
A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac

MacBook wont start and beep "S-O-S" when I push the power button

My wife's MacBook suddenly quit. Was working fine one day and dead the next. Screen is black. No keys work. Light on charger is green, so battery seems to be charged. White light on front is steady and not pulsing as it normally does. When I press the power button the computer beeps S-O-S in Morse code. What's wrong? Can I fix it myself? Can the Genius Bar fix it or is it dead for good? I'm sorry, I don't know what OS it's running (because it won't turn on ...) Thanks!!

Your MacBook definitely needs service. Contact Apple using expresslane.apple.com if you are in a country that supports it or call the appropriate phone number on this page. Alternatively carry the MacBook in to an Apple retail store or service provider to ask for an estimate.

My computer shuts down after 45 seconds from when I push the power button. Anyone have an idea why?

After pushing and holding the power button on my Mac the apple screen comes on and after a few seconds there is a loading bar that tries to load something for a few seconds then it shuts down. I would say it is approximately 45-50 seconds after pushing the power button. Power comes on then shuts right off. This all originated when I tries to log in as a different user. It froze for a while, then I shut down the computer with the power button. Because I couldn't so it from the apple icon on the desk top

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

My husband dropped his phone in water now it won't turn but when you switch the lock button the side it vibrates and we have been charging it and it's getting warm?? is there any way to retreive the information on without turning it on? Is their a memory

I really need help with this question. Can someone please shed some light on this subject.

Let it dry thoroughly in a very dry environment for a couple of days and then try to charge it for more than 15 minutes. Then try to power it on again. I did the same and after two days my phone turned on and although I could not make calls or use data, and the screen was erratic, I was able to connect to iTunes with my Mac and do a backup of both contacts and stuff like photos, settings, etc. afterwards I was able to restore my new iPhone from the backup and I got almost everything back including notes.

My iPod unexpectedly stopped working. It won't turn on even after pressing the power button for 1 minute. My iTunes no longer "recognizes" the iPod and is forcing me to restore it but I'm not sure if that will work! HELP!!!!!!

Thank you and please respond as fast as possible -----

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Are you running the Apple-supplied RAM? Have you run Apple Hardware Test? I don't know what else you've tried, but this may be time to do a fresh install of Lion if you have not done so since installing Lion.

My iMac will not boot up. I have a 3 year old iMac running Lion. When I push the power button I get the Apple logo, then the circular thing made up of small lines revolving iin a clockwise direction, then a progress bar which never fills in.

The progress bar then disappears and the system never boots up. How can I get this machine to boot without a start-up disc?
Are there any keyboard shortcuts available?

I think you'll need those grey original install disks as it sounds like your harddrive is corrupted.

Make sure it is charged for about 10min using the adapter, then connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
