    after reassembling my 6860fx I noticed the power button no longer worked. I am still able to turn on the laptop via the Media Bar "Arrow" button though. I tried removing the media bar and re-seating the power cable on both the switch and mobo but no change.


    Does anyone know how to fix this? I intended to sell my laptop (why I opened it up and cleaned it all out) but I can't very well do that without the power button working ><

    plz help
