My Toshiba satellite model 1955s805 with xp will not power up. It has worked great for a long time and it just quit working. When I press the power button with the power cord plugged in the power cord light and the battery light comes on but it does nothing. When I take my finger off of the power button it just goes dead until I unplug and plug the power cord back up. When I try it without the power cord plugged in all of the lights on the front come on except for the power cord light. The battery light comes on but it doesnt turn green, it just stays red. I have tried everything I can think of with no luck. I have some important stuff on this computer that I havn't had a chance to back up yet. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks.
