Gateway MD2614u laptop was working great. I turned it off and then went back later and when I pushed the power button it lit up as did the lights on the keyboard on the right side. I could hear something cycling and couldn't decide if it was the cd player or a fan. The monitor would not light up at all. I do not know what to do. I cannot return it because it was a refurbished Gateway from tigerdirect and the warranty is over.

maybe..remove the memory, and hard drive..place recovery or install disk in cd drive..see what happens..
SOURCE: My gateway laptop will not turn on when you push power button.
If you power it on and get the light it means either two things:
1. It needs a minimal charge on the battery to power. ( havent seen this since the old Compaq/Apple stuff ) or
2. The motherboard is fried. ( Just diagnosed a HPDV6000r special edition with this beautiful computer, dead motherboard ).
What is the warranty like:
NOTE TO ALL STUDENTS: Buy New laptops in November, so the warranty comes up in October, after you know you need more computer or repairs!

Sometimes it di happen , specialy in most laptop which is being used more frequently and longer usage, the advisable use of a laptop is atleast 2 to 4 hours then shut it off and have cool down for 30 minutes to one hour then you can used it again, unless you got a support inclined base for laptop with support ventilating fan to help down minimize the heat accumulated during the usage.
have it check your video card with the proper technician, but first try to cool down your unit and try to open it again, and if still does'nt work then have it check by the service center

Hi ravenmachine
problems you have two possibilities.
1> Software
2> Hardware
The first thing you should check your software (operating system)

You can try switching off the comp. then remove the battery at the back of the laptop then wait for a few seconds before putting it back.
