Hello everybody. I have this HP Pavilion dv6000 that was being used regularly and then let sit for about two weeks. The person returned to it and used it for one day. It seemed to work just fine for that day. The next day it would no longer start up. When you press the "on" putton the lights above the keyboard do light up for a second but do not stay on nor does any part of the unit start up. Sometimes, if you constantly press the "on" button u will get the unit to light for a few seconds and it will sound as though it is about to power-up, but then everything shuts back down. Never through all that do you ever see anything happen on the screen. So another words, it does not start up to a point where as it comes up on the screen. I really want to get this working, but not sure where to go next. Bought brand new battery and charger already and no differance. So, what is next?
