    So I have been given this laptop for troubleshooting. It stopped powering on, pressing power button, bring it to life and then it shuts down after 2 seconds. Laptop powers on and then does hard shutdown, like loosing all power.

    I have tried removing battery/charger/bios batter and doing power drain. but to no avail. Removing/replacing, hdd/odd/ram doesn't seem to do anything.

    Any suggestions on what to do next? I haven't had much experience with toshiba laptops, personally i only have Dell/alienwares and never seen anything like this.

    I have already recovered data off HDD but bottom label has been peeled off, as such exact model number is not possible to find :(

    Thanks
