Laptop turns on but does nothing.
Laptop turns on, I can hear the fan turn on for a few seconds then stops, then turns back on for a few seconds and back off. It repeats this until I hold the power button in to turn it back off. Nothing displays on the screen. I have pulled the battery held the power button in, reseated the memory card. But this did nothing. Any ideas on what could be going on?
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hi @b23norris ,
Try connecting an external monitor to check if it shows anything during the time that the laptop is on.
If nothing it may be that it is not passing POST.
Does it behave differently if you try to start it with the RAM module removed from the laptop?

@jayeff Removing the memory the laptop turns on but no fan or anything else, just the power light turns on. Connecting to an external monitor nothing shows there either. I also took a flashlight to the screen to see if I could see any images as if the backlights went out and there is also nothing.
