    Hey all, I'm looking for some insight. I have had a Satellite 100-ST1042 for about 18 months, and it's been fairly problem-free. Last night, while carrying the powered-on laptop from one room to another, the laptop shutdown suddenly. It rebooted with no problem, only to do the same thing again a few hours later. Now when I try to start it up, however, my battery power LED indicates it's running just fine, but neither my CPU nor HD are starting up at all. The battery seems fine, and is taking a charge as always.

    Any insignt into what it may be, and possible quick fixes? Thanks in advance for any help!
