I received a refurbished Dell Latitude D600 from the US via courier service. My problem is that the laptop won't power up or turn on. When it left the US, it was in good working condition. Can you please tell me what is the problem. I already cleaned the memory cards but it still would not turn on.....

    What type of electrical system do you have in your country? If you need an adapter, are you using one that is grounded? Are you plugging your laptop directly into the wall and not a surge protector?

    You didn't indicate you had removed the Ram Memory modules, and cleaned the gold plated contact pins, in your newest post. Did you follow Anti-Static Guidelines? Also handled the Ram Memory module by the Body, and refrained from touching the gold plated contact pins? Check to see if the Harddrive retaining screw was installed. If not during shipping the Harddrive could have pulled away from the interface. (Socket on motherboard)http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/sy...

The battery of my Dell Latitude D600 is not charging fully. It only runs for 10 minutes when fully charged. Moreover, the battery indicator flashes 4 times red and one time green. Is it the battery problem...

That sounds like a bad battery. Be sure not to leave charger plugged into your computer while not plugged into power or the power switched off. That will really kill your weak battery and then you won't have 10 minutes. You can live okay with a battery like yours but if you ever need to replace ram or do a serious BIOS update the bad battery will not alallow it.

My refurbished Dell Latitude d600 won't turn on. Please tell me what is most likely wrong with it...

Check power. Check battery. Check RAM (memory). The main problems for this are usually failure to deliver power to the device, improperly seated components, or damaged crucial components such as the RAM, CPU, or motherboard.
