[SOLVED] Toshiba Satellite M35X-S114 blank screen/no startup

Frank Carmines · 11-21-2008, 06:47 PM

Laptop will have 2 lights on, beeping and fan will start for 5 secs and then quit. Screen stays blank....all this when I turn on computer. Then it seems like it just shuts down. HELP??? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The power supply was fixed with a pigtail before I got it.

I am wondering if I can find out how this was solved as I have the same problem on the same computer (minus the pigtail on the power supply). I've tried reading all the other threads but nothing has worked.

I tried unplugging and taking out the battery and then holding the power button for 30 seconds. I read somewhere to push down on the keyboard to "seat" something. Nothing has worked.

This problem has been a progressive one. It started as a slow start up. I could turn the computer on and then come back in a few minutes and it would have started up. Then it started taking longer and longer. Now, it won't start up no matter how long it sits there.

Help! Thanks!
