Laptop Problem
Laptop froze, to reset it I closed it down by holding down power button. After closing down it now will not start, it just powers up as far as the detection of the DVD drive then a quick flash of the hard drive active light and power down before any activity on the screen
I have tried the usual remove battery wait for around an hour hold power button then power up on mains with battery pack still removed, result was still the same.
Removed the hard drive and put it into a usb caddy to remove docs/photo’s with no problems, so hard drive appears ok. Checked ram modules were seated and refitted hard drive still no boot up
Laptop is an Acer 5920 2 GB ram running vista home premium
Any suggestions what to try next
