c600 latitude won't boot

pcboybob · 05-15-2008, 06:11 PM

My c600 was working just fine. Then I converted it from FAT32 to NTFS. It still worked fine for some time. I left it on and went to the store. Came home to find it off. Battery charge lite on. I hit the power button and the power and hdd lites came on for a few seconds and then went off. This continues to be the problem. I have tried removing the battery, the power supply, the cmos battery, the ram, I have tried booting with every possible scenario. I see that I am not the only one with this problem. Has anyone found a solution for this yet? I am really desparate. Please.

hi pcboybob,

when you power ON, do you hear it the fan and the hard drive spin? do you hear any beeps before it shuts OFF?

you said you have tried rebooting with every possible scenario... can you post what are these so i will know which ones have been tried already?
