Problem with a dell insprion 1000 purchased before Tsunami and left in India(stored safely very far (100's of miles from Tsuanmi)).... just recovered it, it worked a few days but now when powered on does nothing... tried changing plugs, disconnecting battery, holding power button on for 30 seconds.... blinks and goes off after 1/2 a second.... want to know what to do... barely used it ... the warranty is expired because didn't have acess to it, forgot it in India... went to help for Tsunami, but don't have the money for it ... perhaps it is the mother board ? What do you think...any suggestions?
Thank u, Sari

Jump to Postmore info about the laptop and less about the tsunami might help us, did you plug it and and just leave it overnight to charge the battery fully ,first ! it maybe the motherboard ,it maybe the cpu ,it may be the harddrive,the video shipset ,the ram ,did you leave …
Jump to PostPOSSIBLE BUT I THINK IT IS POWER SUPPLY OR MOTHER BOARD. SINCE THE POWER DOESN'T GO THROUGH
sounds good to me ,cheapest is to try buying a power supply cord first .
Jump to Postalso you could try removing and re-seating the ram, and the hard drive ,sometimes after sitting for long periods this need to be done
