    Hello,

    Today i got a 5920G , model 3A2G24Mi with a problem. The laptop don't work, and don't start up.

    The config is:

    T5450
    VGA: 8600M GS
    2GB DDR2
    250GB HDD
    BT, HDMI, Wifi (3954 b/g), 1Gb Intel Turbo Memory.


    When i push the power on button, the computer start but the screen don't show nothing (totally black, power off screen), but, the multimedia leds and the hdd led lights.

    If i try to open the DVD-ROM unit, it's works (and the hdd led blink), and i can close and open it.

    I'm tried to uninstall RAM, HDD, VGA, WIFI, and DVD-ROM, and the computer do the same, and not beep.

    With/without VGA the led flashes like:
    First: Two candels blink once. (1)
    Later: HDD Led blink twice (2)

    The different are that with VGA, the screen power off and BEEP one o two times, and when the VGA is put off (without it), the screen power on, but the computer NOT BEEP.



    Can be the nVidia BUG the problem?

    Thank you for help, and excuse my english. :)

    Yes, it is possible that your 8600M is dead.
