HP Pavilion notebook not turining on??

I have a dv5000 series and one day i went to turn it on and it sounded like it was starting up than the power light started flashing? and it wont start,the battery was full and it was plugged into the wall. so there was power, but the power light jus flashes.

any help?

 

remove the battery, plug the laptop to the wall, try it back.

 

nope, nothing,any ideas?

 

and can it be fixed? or do i need a whole new mother board? if anyone hadthis problem before let me know

thanks

 

try removing battery and ac adapter and then holding down the power button for about 30 seconds or so, and then trying to plug it in again to turn it on. Not sure about the dv5000 series but on the newer ones they have the little ring of light around the ac pin. If you have that is is coming on?

 

nope didnt work, and theres no ring around the power plug part.... could the mother board be fried or something? could this be the end of my laptop lol man this sucks

 

If your sure that the battery or adapter is good and you did a power discharge as caveman advised then its a bad board/dcin connector.

I was reading the HP manual the other day and noticed under the "Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment, observe thes practices:" section that it said " Disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet (not by unplugging the power cord from the computer)".

This is what is probably killing the boards. I need to stop doing this myself

 

damn thats probly what happen because i think before this all happend that the way i did it , now i gotta buy a new laptop jus great.... Question tho? can i take the memory from this comp and put it in a new comp if it has 4 slots for the same type of memory?

 

Whats your specs?

 

specs from my old comp? or the new one? cause i dont got a new one yet

 

cant i jus do it if the new labtop has 2 extra memory slots?
