My 2-yr old toshiba portege notebook worked fine yesterday. Today, I turned it on and nothing happened. Only blinking orange light with either battery or AC. It blinks 7 times then pauses for one more blink than rests for a second or two. I just arrived in thailand but am using the same voltage here as I did last year in Tland. (Plus, I get the same reaction from battery only.)
Cannot call Toshiba tech support and not sure how to find a good tech in Chiang Mai (2nd largest city to BKK). I am pretty computer savvy but am clueless what to do. Have googled info to see suggestions in laptoprepare101.com but no fix yet. Please HELP.
