Good evening all,

I have a notebook which was purchased 2.5 years ago.
The brand-name is TwinHead.
Some of its configuration of computer hardware include
Sempron CPU, 512MB (SO-DIMM), 80GB HDD.

====Here is what's happened to my notebook====

I was doing my school assignment last night, and
I was running MS Word, Adobe illustrator, Photoshop and Dreaweaver at the same time.
When I tried to save a word document, my notebook turned off.
It all happened out of a sudden.

I tried to press the "Power" button to turn on the notebook,
but the system didn't boot up. I couldn't see ANYTHING appear on screen either.
I could just see the "Wireless signal" turn on when I pressed the wireless connection short-cut button.

Is it possible that the problem is caused by damaged or burnt-out RAM?
If yes, then how to find out the exact type of memory for my notebook.
I have CHECKED out that my notebook is running SO-DIMM-typed  memory,
but I am not sure whether it is DDR or DDR2,
PC-3200, PC-4200 or other memory modules of higher clock speeds.

Could you help me please?

Thanks a lot.

This is Crucial's online scanner...it will tell you exactly what RAM that system takes...you don't have to buy from them but it's a very useful tool. Quote from: patio on JANUARY 20, 2010, 08:53:42 AM

Does it load Windows at all ? ?
That hard drive may be failing...

Sounds more like the HDD to me....
Do you know what brand of HDD is in that laptop ?

I'd check the HDD 1st...the absence of the activity light leads me to this...
