paganja · 11-16-2008, 08:46 AM

My friend gave me his laptop cause it would not work and he got a new one. It is a compac presario v6000 the constantly reboots every 20 sec. Does not show the BIOS or anything. I have removed the battery pressed the pwoer button and nothing. removed each memory stick and nothing disconnected the wireless card and so on. Don't know what else to try.

kakasbcc3, I have not found a fix yet. I am leaning to the mother board. Once it came up I ran a seagat HD test and it pass. I have to litterly shake it as its booting fo t to start with its load process

Have you checked the lappys vent system air intake / fan spins? / exhaust vent clean? could be overheating CPU.
