Re: Gateway NX570XL no start

I checked out the disasembly link. Close, but not an exact match. It may be enough to get me through it. As long as the keyboard comes off in a smilar manner I should be able to do it.

Yes, the HD spins up and sounds normal when I try to start the computer. It sounds healthy but only makes the reading sound for a second or so when the whole process comes to a halt. I have had bad HDs before that made a sorry clunk sound and wouldn't boot. This one doesn't sound anything like that. It sounds healthy.
