Notebook dead - any ideas?

[dabel]

Soooo... after more than a year of full satisfaction with it, my A317M is dead. On one evening, everything worked fine. I did not install anything special, shut down the computer correctly... and then, on next day in the morning, it did not react on start-button at all... Neither battery-operated, nor on AC power... anybody got an idea what could be wrong? Thx in advance!

Have you taken the battery out?

[dabel]

Yes, I tried everything: unplugging AC and start only battery operated, taken battery out and tried just AC and taken both out for the whole night and tried to boot then. Nothing helped. Now I got a hint from e-support, to take battery and AC out and press the ON button for 20s - this should remove the static from the motherboards... See if this helps...
