slim147: Hello NL , my laptop won't on again after water had poured into it, it was working but malfunctioning since then, but after like 1 month, it won't charge or even power on anymore. Pls I need help badly. Its ACER Travel Mate.

bro next time make sure you open it and dry it before using it.....
now it has affected the board...just take it to an engineer to open and clean with spirit or fuel then dry it and see
hope its not that damaged

its either a hardware malfunctioned or virus.....i will advice to try some options
1. if you can check the RAM...open the RAM if there are two (2) remove one and try if noting put it back and remove the other
2. remove the battery and charger..hold down the power botton for like 60seconds...release it and put back the battery
goodluck

I would suggest that you follow step 2 and ignore step 1.
It is not advisable for you to open your computer, leave it
for the pro to do.

white writting is it a flashing cursor or an error message ?

If you're able to get up and running keep pressing f8 and select
disable automatic restart on system failure and tell us what the
error message is e.g. 0x000000 dumping physical memory

It is advisable to buy a copy of windows 7 and install it
with the product key that come with it, you could also
take to a pro/shop for installation. If you decided to bypass
it by using crack, windows update will install WGA and will detect
that it was crack and you would not be ablel to install windows
update any longer and security essential and the desktop would turn black

Have you followed adewasco2k step 2, check previous post.
if you have and still no joy take it to a repair centre.
We have carried out 1st and 2nd line diagnostics and dont think
there's anymore that we can do. The laptop need opening for
further test and that cannot be done on the internet, take it to a
technician to examine. if the laptop displayed blank screen and
you can see lights in the background then get back to us if just black
dark nothint at all then visist a technician.

dont waste your precious time thats the fact take it to a technician

and windows 98. what's the printer model number
e.g.sharp T400

sorry bro next time she should find out well before buying stuffs
The only way is to install MyWi Mobile Hotspot Application on the iPad and she can tether it with a browsing phone preferably an Iphone grin grin grin
LESSON
IPAD 3G uses sim card no wireless
IPAD IFI has wireless
IPAD 3G + WIFI both sim and wireless

Thanks in advance

was windows vist/xp setup cd dvd inserted into the laptop to do the format ?

Was the built in F11 system recovery used at start up ?

when was the last time the laptop read cd's ?

Hre your diagnostics

click start, computer, can you see cd dvd drive ?

click start, accessories, clicl run, and type in devmgmt.msc look for cd dvd click
the + sign what does it says underneath the cd dvd ?

what's your laptop full model number ? e.g. HP Pavilion D6000 CTO

Any yellow signs ?

I would advice you to install the driver for the vista version and see what happened.
My findings revealed that there's no windows 7 driver for this printer but
need to contact sharp tec support if still no joy.
