Compaq nx5000 laptop with new battery and new power supply does not power up whether on battery, AC only, or both. When plugged in without battery no lights at all; when plugged in with battery installed (after being charged overnight), the lightning bolt lights up. Push the on button and light goes out, the fan starts up, but within 5 seconds the fan shuts off and the light comes back on. Every great once in awhile it turned on, logged in, but shut down within 5 minutes, but the On light stayed on until power button held down 10 sec.or so. I disassembled and reseated all connections (I have worked on laptops before), reseated all memmory cards, etc. Same thing. Ideas?
