Just bought this online and find it won't run on new tested AA batteries. If plugged into AC power it works just fine, but when plug is pulled just gives the blinking flat battery symbol and shuts off. Any suggestions please? Mark

Looks like you are having a no post situation, generally a failed motherboard. Replacement motherboards are available on Ebay for around $100

It sounds like you have a faulty power jack, and possibly a dead battery as well. You should take it to a person you may know that can order and solder a new one in or take it to your local electronics repair shop. I do repairs like this on a daily basis for my computer business.

Try taking out battery and plug in power. If it works, battery is faulty. If not,
Try taking out your hard disk plug in power, if it works, hard disk is faulty. If not,
Try taking out memory card, if there's a sound, memory card faulty. If no sound, it's your motherboard that is causing the error.
Note: If machine is under warranty no need to pay for the repairs.
