Solve : Daughter at school, computer wont start? |
|
Answer» shes 100s of miles away and frustrated shes 100s of miles away and frustratedI'll probly be no help but: Are you sure the adapter that plugs into the wall is actually supplying current to the machine? Is there an indicator light on the adapter and is it coming on when plugged in? Are you sure she has it plugged into an outlet that is energized? No trpped breakers in the breaker box in the house? It sounds to me like a POSSIBLE dead battery due to not being charged but it certainly could be something else. Good luck. Take the battery out and see if laptop runs off AC power (through the AC/DC adapter of course). This will eliminate the "battery" as the source of the problem. Shes still sleeping Im sure so I dont know if its working this morning or not. She says that the A/C indicator was lit so it should be charging. I emailed her and said to try to start it without the battery in it and see if that works. I ASKED if someone could of messed with it and she said no. Her room mate was at work. You guys know kids ? Could she have dropped it and hurt it that WAY and is just not telling ?? Man, I hate being so far away from her let alone with her having problems there. Thanks, Ill keep you posted.She tried to fire it up at lunch break and it asked ...."launch startup repair? (recommended) she hit enter and it shut down. I dont know if she had to highlight anything or just hit enter like I said Im 100s of miles away and she is an impatient college student who cant chat online sounds like its ether a eletrical problem or a head problem try blowing an extra desk fan on it see if it still does it |
