justronics Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 @poppinfresh2k5: hmmm...good point. i better check the ps. ty! you could try booting your laptop minus the battery.. check for indicators like harddisk light and blink on the leds if none then its an internal hardware malfunction.. most probably the cpu.. usually caused by deffective blower you could bring it to megamall cyberzone for fixing or you could go to starmall shawblvd-cyberzone.. i have good feed back on service from them..

deus Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 got another problem w/ a desktop. during boot, a "no 80-pin conductor cable installed" message displays on screen. the odd thing is, the hd & fdd's are fine. what could be the problem? 1. There is no 80 pin connected, you're probably using the old cable type. 2. Cable connectors could be connected to the wrong slots i.e. blue to blue in primary hard disk and IDE slot whilst the middle connector for 2nd. This is sometimes the problem why it takes an eternity from boot to windows gui (not the log-in screen). Quote Link to comment

Google Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 so its possible that even w/ a wrong connection, the system boots? sorry, but did i get it right? from boot, this message appears but it continues with the booting? a) can you check your CMOS configuration you just need confirmation on change of configuration? baka dun lang. if you have time, you can have your device opened and check the connections. if this happens again after doing this, change your IDE cable.

Carlito4977 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 (edited) ~Google no beeps...all i noticed is that the "CAPS LOCK" sign blinks. display is blank but power indicator is good. even w/ bad RAM it should display something.Just like what I told you earlier (a few pages away), it could be an inverter or LCD panel problem. It is very possibly displaying something, you just can't see anything (all black) because of a defective inverter/LCD panel. If it is giving the right POST lights, might try to check on the parts I've been telling you. Edited October 6, 2007 by Carlito4977 Quote Link to comment

You're most probably using an old cable, and you might want to try an 80-wire IDE cable. A 40-wire IDE cable will only give you 33mbps transfer rate while an 80-wire IDE cable can give you more than three times that speed. Quote Link to comment
