Power and battery lights are dim. Any solution to this problem?

Yesterday, I was on my computer searching online when all of a sudden the computer just shuts down by itself.
I was wondering why it did that and I thought it was going to restart but never did. I tried to turn it back on, but nothing didn't happen. I saw the power light on or "the power button" but it was dim. Then the battery and the power light in the front left side of the computer [LED lights] was also dim. I tried taking the battery out and hold down the power light button for 30 sec...still not turning on and still get the same results. It also does the same when I leave the battery off and just plug in the adapter. Don't know how to fix this problem and I have a compaq presario cq61. Do anyone know what''s the cause of this problem??

Were there any modifications made prior to getting this? I would try system restore first to isolate the oftware issue. Looking at this, may appear to be a hardware.
I would call tech support on this. And check my options.

  • HT4199 The screen is freezing when i am mirroring a video from my mac to LCD TV via Apple TV? Are there any solutions for this problem?

    Anybody can help?

    One area to troubleshoot is to check the amount of bandwidth that you have available for mirroring. Starting with your Apple TV; which generation is it? What is the make and model of your wireless router? Is the Apple TV in the same room as the router, different room, or different floor? How about your MacBook Air when you are attempting to mirror to the Apple TV?

  • My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

    My ipod shuffle 2nd gen suddenly stops playing music after 15-20 mins.First it flashes green light and then flashes red light rapidly. Any solution to this ?

    A 2nd gen shuffle is about six year old at this point.  The likely cause is a battery that is worn out, with greatly reduced capacity or inability to hold a charge.  The initial green light shows a good charge.  The red light means the battery is drained.
    Since the shuffle still appears in iTunes, you can try doing a Restore in case the cause is related to corrupted software on the shuffle.  The Restore button is on the shuffle's Settings screen in iTunes.  This will erase the shuffle, re-install its software, and set it to default settings.
    Also, when the light becomes red and the shuffle stops playing, try turning OFF the shuffle for at least ten seconds.  Then, turn it back ON.  This resets the shuffle.  Does it play again?  If it does, let it play until it no longer plays again.  Repeat turning it OFF and ON until it no longer plays.  Then, connect it to power and charge it to full.  See if that makes any difference.
    If that does not help, the solution is to replace the battery.  If you have a repair shop do it, the cost is probably uneconomical, compared to the cost of a brand new 4th gen shuffle ($50) that has more features, and a new set of headphones, plus a one-year warranty.
    If you are good at such things, this web site has repair guides

    ...Is it possible that the server at work is somehow affecting these attachments?
    I can't say, but if that's the answer, trying to get it fixed might be impossible. Instead, I'd suggest compressing your attachments to create a .zip file. Decompression at the other end would take no time, and if the server changes the attachment's file type, just change it back to .zip.

    If the problem is sending to just one address and it has worked in the past, I don't know if this will work.

    My #Username and Password were showing 'Optional'.  Filled them in with the correct details (email account login) and that fixed problem.

    iPhones purchased in the US are NOT guaranteed to work with 4G bands outside of North America.
    For what crazy reason did you purchase an iPhone in the US if you live in Greece?  If your phone needs servicing, it will have to be brought back to the US.  You cannot get that phone serviced in Greece.

  • Volume icon is disfigured. Any solutions to this problem?

    I logged into my macbook pro like I do everyday and when I clicked on the volume key the volume icon appeared to have weird lines on both the top and the bottom. It has happened to one of my friends a few months ago and she never knew how to fix it and when the same thing happened to me today, I had to find solutions to this problem. I have not found any solutions to this problem whatsoever. Please help me fix this as I do not have an apple store nearby and I have been searching around the internet all day. Thanks!

    when I'm trying to add files to media, the program is suddenly closed by windows and says that can not find solution to this problem...

    Hello Wyodor,
    thanks for your reply on my question.
    You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
    And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
    Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
    No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
    and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
    But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)

  • My iPad (original) no longer connects to the internet after update to ios 5.  Are there any solutions to this issue?

    Has anyone found a successful method to connect?  This is not a router issue as other devices, including another iPad not updated to ios 5 connects just fine.  I am getting frustrated

    I had this problem.  I held down the power switch to power down completely.  Takes a few seconds.  Then use the power switch to turn on.  Might take a couple goes.

  • My new iPhone 4S has hearing problem.speaker and headphone works very good.However using handset to make and receive calls I cannot hear anything?I did restore the phone and removed the plastic.Is there any solution to this problem please?

    I am having heraing problem with iPhone 4S.Speaker and headphone works well.No echo.When I use handset to receive or make calls,I can't hear anything?I restore the phone and removed the plastic as well.Is there anyway to fix this problem?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?
