I got my hands on an HP NC4010. It doesn't boot up at all. The only thing that happens is that the battery LED blinks amber 9 times. Or it could be 8 short blinks, one long blink. Not really sure.

I get the feeling that this is some kind of BIOS code, like the beeps on a desktop. But I can't find any info on if these ARE codes and, if they are, what they mean.

I should also note that I pulled the HD out and formatted it. But the same LED codes blink with or without the HD. I have also noticed that there is no RAM module in the, what I believe to be, the expansion slot.

Anyone have a spare clue?

Thanx
