It is my girlfriends sisters old computer, and I can not get it to stay on, It will only turn on, and pring up the HP screen then shut off right away, if I take out that battery, and just run it off of ac power, It occasionally brings up a windows faild to start scren, but the keys wont work to get it to select start in safe mode. when the count down to start normally reaches zero, it just turns off again. Any ideas, or should I just give up on this computer.

secondly, how is this computer compared to a Ibm r51e?

Thanks everyone!
