Did you disconnect the firewire drive before installing? You may need to update your firmware. Also, try these things:

1. Shut down and disconnect your firewire drive leaving nothing is connected to the firewire ports.
2. Restart, and use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your internal.
3. Shut down, and disconnect the AC power from the computer and your drive; also remove battery if laptop.
4. Let computer sit unpowered and disconnected for15 minutes.
5. Reconnect AC power to only the computer and reinsert battery.
6. Restart computer.
7. Verify that firewire ports are visible using System Profiler.
8. Reconnect your firewire drive, and refresh window in System Profiler to rescan the firewire bus, and confirm that drive is visible.
9. Repair disk and permissions on the firewire drive.

Try this:
1. Disconnect the AC Adapter.
2. Remove the Battery.
3. Hold the Power button down for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
4. Reconnect the AC adapter and do NOT connect the battery now.
5. Turn on the Notebook power.

If not, contact HP or local service center. It is a hardware problem

Hi

Thank you for your query it would seem the touch pad has been locked

on most Asus laptops the key to unlock is to press the fn key + F6 key (the F key will have a rectangle on it and a finger or hnd pointing to it).

Please try and advise of the outcome

I hope this has been useful

The Charger could be bad, Try replacing that, or let charge, then try to turn on. The laptop might not boot with AC power. kinda stupid but maybe. If that doesn't work, the AC adapter is bad.

I don`t know.

It sounds as if the power pin (where the AC cord connects to the computer) has been damaged. The part to fix it usually runs under $10 but the labor is gonna set you back $100-200.

Because the connector pin is so fragile, the damage to the pin is caused by the day to day tugging and pulling on the power cord.

What you needed when you got the computer is a cable stay or cable retention device like the Jerkstopper. It takes up the strain when you yank or **** the power cord and minimizes the damage to the power pin. It's a very common problem with laptops.

Here's a short video that talks about the problem. . . .
