Hello all, I am hoping that someone can help me with some advice on this one, My Sony laptop will not start up at all, all that happens is the power light comes on and the hard drive light comes on for about 5 seconds, I also have three lights stay on the top right hand side of keyboard, no life to the screen at all, the hard drive I can hear whirring away and I have power to the DVD drive, first I originally had a graphics problem with artefacts all over the screen that then progressed into this state with no life at all, so I bought a tested second hand mother board, and fitted it but same problem, I have removed the hard drive the ram DVD drive and removed the bios battery for 30 min's and still nothing, I have also re-seated the T5600 processor and still nothing, I am thinking that it might be either a corrupt bios (but removing the batt should reset this I thought) or a main T5600 processor chip, I anyone can offer something it would be really appreciated, thank you.
