Hello my Dell C640 will not boot and turns off after about 10 seconds, the implication is that I cannot enter BIOS with it and there is very little I can do with it. Yes, I have connected it to the mains. Any help from the experts there will be much appreciated. |

rivette65: Dear Engr rivette65, Thank you for the above enquiry. I take it an HD/Memory test has been run in the bios diagnostics menu ? if so, does it pass or fail. tampering with the eeprom chip was not neccessary. Here's your diagnostics in narrwoing down the case. Restart laptop to Bios and check bios version. is it version 9, 10 or 11. to verify this please double check the link below and click the bios that applies to you. Then click fixes to read more before upgrading www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3687786&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3687778&swLang=13&swEnvOID=1093#120">http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3687786&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=3687778&swLang=13&swEnvOID=1093#120 If still the same after upgrading the bios. install linux and see if the same. Good luck |

maclatunji: Dear tunji , Thank you for the above enquiry and here is your diagnostics in narrowing the cause. Test laptop without battery just the charger . does it power off and vice versa for the battery. Examine all the usb ports known as where you plug a usb stick. Any burnt/smells/damages. wickle the charger at the end that plug into the laptop, does LED light blicks on the laptop Any beep beep sound when first power up. can you hear the fan kicks in before turning off I reckon might be bad cpu fan or dc jack very rare for a motherboard to pack up. Good luck |

^^^No, your laptop won't crash. It's just that your desktop wall paper would turn black and the annoying message would be popping up at intervals on the bottom of the screen. Ahh finally, at some point you won't be able to use windows media player any more and no windows updates too. |
Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here For Free Advice. by Tolulop001(f): 10:51pm On Nov 22, 2010 |
denzel2009: whew! thats a relief. yeah its pretty annoying!the black background and all. no more Windows Media player! gotta do something soon! thanks for the response Denzel! |

^^^ignore my question on the other thread is windows 7 that much of a must for you? why dont you install the same OS that your computer came with and use the key under your computer, that way you have an original OS and dont need to worry about all the validation wahala. |
Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here For Free Advice. by Tolulop001(f): 11:16pm On Nov 22, 2010 |
i already replied there but anyway i wasnt aware it would be a problem. i just thot i should upgrade can i still go back to my original vista without any problems? me i no like wahala oh! |
Re: Post Your Laptop Problems Here For Free Advice. by netotse(m): 11:29pm On Nov 22, 2010 |
it has to be a fresh install, and it's have to be the exact same flavour of windows that your computer came with so the key on the sticker under your computer will work(i.e. if it's vista basic on the sticker then you have to install vista basic) windows is taking things really serious with windows 7 as far as piracy is concerned. |

Follow the pieces advice below to fix all computer problems: 1) Is your computer unstable? Make sure your anti-virus is up-to-date and run a full system scan. 2) Is your computer slow? You need Regcure or TuneUp utilities. These are software programs that clean the system registry and eliminate unwanted cache files. These are my quick computer repair tips.
