POWER SUPPLY & BATTERY PROBLEM
If thelaptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be worn out.Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles andwill lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% andgradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up at all. OR Thebattery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected the batterydrops off to zero capacity in a very short time. If the battery drops to anunacceptable charge level then the battery needs to be replaced.Whenyou connect the power adapter into the laptop, does the power LED lightup? If not then -The battery adapter or the adapter's power lead or the laptop's powersocket could be faulty.Check power adapter's DCplug that connects into the laptop power socket with a multi-meter, the voltageshould be slightly higher than the voltage that is printed on the label on thebottom of the adapter. If the voltage is zero or way below the voltage that isprinted on the label then the power adapter is faulty and needs to be replaced.If the adapter is OK thenconnect it to the laptop and power it up, then look at the power/batterycharging LED light and wriggle the power plug in the laptop's powersocket. If the power/battery LED light flashes and in a certain position thisLED light stays firm, then the power socket is either faulty or it has a drysolder joint where it is connected to the motherboard.This can be repaired but itrequires the laptop to be completely dismantled to get at this power socket andrepair. If you cannot DIY then I suggest you get a quote first.

SOURCE: lap top will not power on

There are a few things that can cause this. Start by removing the battery and starting on AC only. Then remove the memory and try each chip separately. If these aren't the problem, then I'm afraid the power management system or another component on the motherboard may have failed. You will need to take it in for a professional diagnostics.

Your power connector on the laptop has been bumped too many times and the solder connection has worked it's way loose.. somewhat of a common annoyance. Find a good TV Repair shop, maybe a reputable PC repair shop and tell them to please resolder ( better to replace, but could cause rejection if they don't have a source for micro parts ) the connector back onto the motherboard.. could cost you $100 because of what it takes to access the location for a 1 minute solder job.. sad but true, sometimes, EVERYTHING in the laptop has to be removed to solder the connectors on the bottom side of the motherboard, sometimes you can get lucky with bottom side access. Get someone experienced in circuitboard soldering techniques. A hobbist will burn up more than what they are attempting to fix.

SOURCE: My lap top will not

Hi,

This is a normal problem with notebooks, not to worry can be easily resolved.

Follow the undermentioned steps and check it works or not!!

1>Turn the system completely off
2>Disconnect the power adapter and the battery from the system
3>Disconnect any other pheripheral which is connected for example :Printer,scanner,flashdrive,etc
4>Press and hold the power key for 1 minute without any power source being connected to the system.
5>Now connect everything back
6>Try powering the system on.

If it works GREAT.....If not then follow the undermentioned steps
1>shut the system down
2>this time when we restart keep on tappping the F10 key for sometime which would take you to the PHOENIX BIOS SET UP
3>As soon as you reach that screen it might give you an option to click on YES or NO.
4>Yes would be higlighted click on ENTER
5>If you don't get any options like yes or no....not to worry
6>Press the F9 key once which would ask you whether you want to set the BIOS to the default settings or not, which would give you a YES or NO option
7>Yes would be highlighted click on YES
8>Now press F10 once again and then Hit enter on YES option
9>The system would reboot by itself
10>Hope it works this time

IF then also the issue persists

1>Boot the system press F10 to got to the BIOS SET UP
2>If it gives you a YES or NO option ,select YEs and then hit enter
3>look at the top of the screen you would get a DIAGNOSTICS or ADVANCED TAB
4>Selecrt that tab using the ARROW KEYS on the keyboard and then hit enter
5>Under that option it would give you an option to run a PRIMARY HDD SELF TEST
6>Run the test and in case you get any errors like #1-07 FAILED or #1-08FAILED or any other errors ask HP tp replace the hard drive of the system
7>In case th HDD test passes completely which normally takes around 120 minutes to complete doesn't give you any errors then you have to reinstall the operating system

Check this steps ....in case none of the steps work then get back on fixya would let you know how to reinstall the operating system

Regards
KEN

Lap top wont start

When you plug in the power cord is there any lightswhatsoever on the laptop, where the plug goes in or on the AC Adapter of thepower cord?

When you press the power button do you hear fans running, hard drive spinning,lights on the computer, hear any beeps or lights constantly blinking, hear theDvD/CD drive click and the light on the drawer of the DvD/CD turn on for asecond or two? If so the laptop is trying to boot or may have booted, butthe screen is not showing for some reason.

Beep tones and blinking lights tells the technicians what is going on with thelaptop and why it is not booting. Most times it's a motherboard issuewhen you hear beeps or blinking lights continuous. Most times the problemis with the memory or Video Card. Count the Blinking Lights or Beeps and takenote of their pattern (1 Long or 1 Long followed by 2 Short).

Maybe your power cord is bad if you don't get anything to happen whatsoeverwhen you press the power button. And if that's true maybe you wasoperating off the battery the last time you had it on and since the power cordis bad, it was not charging the battery so the battery is drained and the powercord is bad.

Maybe you have a Static Charge Buildup. Remove the Power Cord, Remove theBattery, then Press and Hold the power button for 30seconds. After 30 seconds plug the power cord back in (leave the batteryout) and hit the power button to see if it boots. If it does, you can putthe battery back in and let it charge.Maybe your DC Power Jack which is where the power cord plugsinto the computer is bad. Take an ink pen and push the tip inside thejack and see if the little pin wiggles, if so the jack is bad. You'll have totake the laptop apart to fix it. Most times it is soldered onto themotherboard, so you will have to desolder the old and solder a new one.Maybe your memory is bad or the memory slot is bad.Remove the Power Cord, Remove the Battery, Remove the cover that houses the memory on the bottom of the laptop then remove one of thememory chips. Set the chip aside then try rebooting the computer. If it boots, then you know the memory chip you set aside is bad so mark an x onit with an ink pen. If it fails to boot then move the chip to the nextmemory slot and try rebooting. If it fails take the chip out and set itaside, then put the other chip in and try booting it in both slots. If itboots, just to verify that the chip set aside is bad, mark an x on it and putit into the open memory chip slot and try booting.

My lap top turns on and then turns off

What model is your laptop? What Operating System?

Remove the Power Cord, Remove the Battery, Remove the screw from the cover that houses the memory then remove one of thememory chips. Set the chip aside then try rebooting the computer. If it boots, then you know the memory chip you set aside is bad so mark an x onit with an ink pen. If it fails to boot then move the chip to the nextmemory slot and try rebooting. If it fails take the chip out and set itaside, then put the other chip in and try booting it in both slots. If itboots, just to verify that the chip set aside is bad, mark an x on it and putit into the open memory chip slot and try booting.

Hi: My Aspire 4710Z was not shutting down properly. I pulled out the battery to turn it of. Now, when I put back the battery after few hours, there is no power in my Lap top. Screen is black and now...

Remove the battery and the AC adapter from the laptop.
Press and hold the power button for 60 seconds then let go
Plug the AC adapter only back into the laptop
Now press the power button on the laptop
If it now boots properly shut down the laptop and insert the battery
Now push the power button again
If it now fails you may have a bad battery

The laptop doesn't charge and cannot work without the battery. when the battery is inserted, it indicates'plugged in not charging'

Most laptops will work without a battery as the house current is converted to usable voltage for the lap top as well as to charge the battery.

The battery is not charging because the voltage level has fallen below a safe level to recharge. Li-ion batteries have a safety feature built into them. A small chip is wired into the battery to tell the power supplly on the lap top that it is OK to charge the battery. If Li-ion batteries internal charge fall below a certain level, that chip signals the charger not to try to charge the battery as it would demand a higher charge rate and raise the battery temperature and cause a fire, so it in effect says don't do it. If the battery charge falls further, then that chip locks out the battery and shuts down your computer.

One thing you can try, put the battery in your freezer for about an hour, and then put it back in your machine and see if it will come back to life. Do not let the battery freeze, just an hour will do. You may want to try this a couple of times, but your batter is at it's life end.

It ia an acer aspire 3004 laptop. The battery charging % remins at 74% all the time and when I remove the power the lap top turnsoff completely.

Hello,

Well it surely shows that the battery is not providing backup to the laptop. There could be few reasons for the same defective and faulty battery is one of them.

However i will give you a step which you should try once and see if it makes any difference.

Method (Power cycle)

You need to remove the battery, adapter and any other device connected to the computer (May be any additional cards or any wires as for Ethernet or speakers or external mouse/keyboard).

Nothing should be connected at all.

Now Press and hold the power button for 25 seconds (It wont show anything). This is a step to release any static charges developed, which may surely caused the kind of issue you are facing.

Now connect the battery and the adapter and check whether it is charging the battery and provides you the backup.

The usual battery life is said to be 1 year. if you are using an older battery, kindly get the same checked as well.

Hope his will help. Please let me know what happens.

Regards
Sammy

Charging lap top battery

As soon as the AC is plugged in, the battery will start to charge. The battery light located somewhere on the laptop should indicate you that it is charging. It does not matter if the laptop is turned on or off.

What you explain here about the first battery is very common for a 4-5 y.o. laptop. The longevity of the battery mainly depends on the number of charging/discharging cycles it encountered. If the second battery you want to try spent more time in a carrying case than in the laptop, it may still be usable. But do not expect to go over 1 hour of autonomy with it.
