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.
