    Hey guys

    Few months back bought a open box refurb DM3-1035dx, had some issues, figured I could fix her up and save some coin.

    well, it's been sitting for a few months and never figured her out, so i decided to hit the interwebs to seek a solution.

    The DM3 is refurb, win 7.

    Now, the problem is, it won't start up. I turn the power on it starts for a second then as soon as it hits the post screen it shuts down. And, then the only way to get it started again is to remove the battery, then it does the same thing. Boots then shuts down.

    I tried everything, RAM, HDD,New AC

    basically everything under the sun..

    Anyone have any suggestions or ideas.

    Thanks so much!
