    This is probaly not the problem but have you check your ram some times it comes out in a laptop and that will cause it not to start.

    ohmmeter check for 5V & 12 V
    that would rate... you normaly use a Volt meter to check the voltages.. and an ohmmeter to merasure the resistance of something..

    This is probaly not the problem but have you check your ram some times it comes out in a laptop
    when were we told it was a laptop?

    Why do people have to repeat what has alredy been said.. memory cpu voltages .. let voltagirl come back with her/his reply to our earlier comments before we slap ourselves around and look like tools..

    2 dead on guesses based on past experience -

    1 - as previously stated, check your power supply - that's the most common culprit in hardware failures of this type.

    2 - if it *is* a laptop, being we weren't told either way, check the battery/power cables.

    Luck to you!

    I thought she said it was a laptop in her first post.

    I have windows 98.When I try to boot up my pc I can't hear any beep sound or whatsoever.The light that denotes that the computer is reading the hard disk wont even lit up.I only have a power light on.The fan on the motherboard is working.I tried to connect my monitor on the other CPU and the monitor works fine. What's wrong?
    No. It seems we were told it WASN'T a laptop.

    Riot, my friend:

    Now, have you ever tried to swap laptop monitors?

    As she has not responded, I do not think that this is a real problem? (OK US Holiday...........but do you only fix busted stuff when you are at work )
