Hi Guys and Gals,
Sorry to trouble you.....but.....
I have a HP Pavillion DV5 1112ea.
Still visually in pristine condition having never left my bedroom but it has developed a problem which, of course if the reason I am here - lol.
When I press the start button, all the lights across the top flash momentarily and then there is a barely audible click from the top right (where the power cord thingy goes in). And I mean barely audible. There is no fan sound and it just sort of lies there like a table mat, dead, bereft of life, a computer no more. There is a little light where the power cord goes in and the charging light is nice, bright and pretty at the bottom left front.
I have done that 'take everything off and press the start button for 20 seconds' thingy so many times I've broken a nail.
I'm assuming the power bit is ok because of the two aforementioned lights being on and bright.
Any advice and help would be gratefully accepted.
Kindest regards.
