    hp Pavilion dv4000 - no power
    « on: November 14, 2009, 04:52:50 PM »
    I cannot get my computer to start-up. I have tried replacing the battery and AC Adapter. These are the results:

    With old battery & AC Adapter - Lightning icon flashes blue three times but will not power laptop

    With new battery & old AC Adapter - Start-up until battery fails; then same result, lightning icon flashes blue three times, no
                                                               start-up

    With new battery & new AC Adapter - results as above

    With old battery & new AC Adapter - same results

    With no battery - old and new AC Adapter - nothing


    Is this compter shot or is there a fix or repair to help?

    Probably not something you can fix yourself.  Contact these guys.

      That sounds like  hardware failure. It could be the internal power socket. Does the light flash on the adapter?
      Networking & Computer Services  & For help with Computer Basics just give me a nod.

      If it aint broke, don't fix it!

        Neither adapter has a light, however the adapters do work with compatible equipment for the adapters (camcorder).
