HP 8710W (p/n: GT648PA #ABG): 8710W does not start - the battery light flashes orange 7 times then 1 green.

Troubleshooting done so far: I removed (even the RTC) battery, hard drive and memory. Hold the power button for 30 sec.

When I re - install the battery and press the power button, it flashes 7 times orange, and then Green 1. Same thing happens with or without the power supply is connected.

The laptop does well (no fan, no disc doesn't sound etc.) and the screen stays off (i.e. no splash screen).

I thought it was a dead battery, as it was 8 + years, so bought a new replacement. Unfortunately, there no fixed and I still have the same problems with the new battery.

How to decode what mean hot flashes?

What else can we test it before I bin the laptop? I would have preferred not to do so as he has been a full rock performer and the 17 "display is fantastic as a desktop replacement.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, this seems to be a motherboard problem. After eight years of service, it is left for a digital camera never never land.

Unfortunately, it's time to bin and source of a replacement book.

You can retrieve data from the hard drive using a cable or a drive enclosure hard usb 2.5 ".

I understand your disappointment. Workstations are portable very special and very expensive to replace.

    Hello

    I agree with go.
    The ASP would be able to tell what means error.

    Usually means short and 1 long: 0
    So the error must be: 1010 1010
    Due to the last significant bit (LSB), to be read by behind:
    So it now means: * 0101 0101 binary *-> it must be converted to hexadecimal-> * 55 Hex *.

    Then, you will get a hex code.
    But unfortunately, I m not very well which could mean this code

    So ask ASP for help!

  • 18 XPS does not start, the power light will not stop flashing

    I was upgrade this computer to Windows 10, I did install one instead, but the children had spyware which even then showing upwards. I did a refresh, there no I did an installation and finally got in windows. Some updates installed and restarted.

    The computer was bricked since. The only thing that happens is the LED which indicates the power above, the button will not stop flashing white light. Connected or not connected, after having held down the power button for 5, 10 and 30 seconds, the led stops flashing for a while and then again. I tried several points of sale. No idea if it is a coincidental breakdown.

    I'll change that.  I went back in and re-removed the cable from the battery.  I also removed the CMOS battery cable this time... I was at least an error message on the screen and access to the BIOS!

  • Equium A100-338 does not start the OS Vista - update Bios?

    Hi guys,.

    My laptop (a few months) decided to die and was told by tech support that it might be because of the BIOS. The problem is that the computer does not start the operating system (Vista) and the update of the BIOS available only is the version of windows. Are there any other mirror to get the traditional update or even a way to convert a the update the BIOS from Windows startup disk?

    The server is maybe out of service.  I reported the problem with the web page.  Yours is not the only page not available at the moment - something's up.

    Hang in there and try again later.

  • Canon 60 d does not recognize the 430ex II flash. Any suggestions?

    Canon 60 d does not recognize the 430ex II flash. On the menu screen, it says that flash is where not compatible.

    Any suggestions? Books or guides recommended?

    Thank you

    A few...

    I hope that you have verified that the flash lights up completely and you get the red light showing that it is ready to fire.

    On your system menu 60 d, if you find the "Flash control" option, you can ensure that you have not set the external speedlite to 'disable' - although I think in this mode, you wouldn't get the message you describe.  that is, I doubt it's, but you can double check.

    A more common reason for the failure is that the flash of the camera can perfectly communicate with flash.  This is usually due to a bad connection in the 'foot' of the lightning.

    The flash must be in place in the rails of the claw.  Make sure that the lock is released, fully slide the flash into the rails of the hoof, stop.  Engage the locking of the foot, so we got him firmly (it will slide to the right and then click sur-pour-snap (you must press the button to release the locking lever).)  This is not * only * snug foot... He also puts a tiny metal pin locking in a small hole in the claw so that flash can't get out.

    At this point, the "foot" of the flash is actually the "ground" connection and he is in contact with the metal rails of the claw AND the five contacts on the foot must be in contact with the camera.

    This means there is nothing wrong with the flash - and there could be something wrong with her.   So if you are convinced you fully secures the flash, then remove the flash and inspect the "foot" on the flash.

    The metal plate on the bottom of the flash must be strong... If you use your fingers and try to move it (do not use a heavy force... we do not break - just firmly grasp and see if he's going to move at all) it should not move.  If it does not move that this means that the foot is loose and is not attached to the body of the flash (there are four very small screws which hold it firmly, but they are accessible from the inside of the flash.

    Next, inspect the 5 metal pins on the bottom of the flash.  Each of these areas is spring loaded so that they will stand against the 5 points of contact in the camera shoe.  I sometimes saw a performance of something (for example, a bit of sand) getting stuck and 'jam' a PIN so that she she brings more contact with the contact on the hoof.  If you view the foot of the flash of an edge - on view, all the pins it is back to the same height.  If one of them is lower than the rest... indented it is blocked.

    The 430EX II has a solid reputation as a flash work horse.  It tends to be among the most reliable flashing on failures is rare.

    It is also possible that the problem is in the camera.  A simple test of this is to try an another speedlite (if you have one, or if you have a friend who has a).  If it's your speedlite, and it is under warranty, then it is probably a simple remedy of service Canon.

    If the flash is not under warranty and that the problem is with the hot-shoe is is not solid, it is often an easy repair.  If a foot have been irreparably damaged, the entire foot can be replaced (everything is a module) and it is an easy and I think a little low cost repair.

  • When the Active Server is shut down normally, the passive server does not start the service

    Hi friends,

    I have a question for the vCenter heartbeat,

    When the Active Server is shut down normally, the passive server does not start the service.

    Is this normal?

    Thank you.

    He starts the services on the passive server because the correct judgment still leaves the server active as being the "main".

    Stop all services of it properly. And after it comes back online replication starts as before, so that no service must be started on both servers. (in this case that you will have questions)

    Please note that on a server computer, you have 2 possibilities to "stopping down": the BONE and the option of status and control of the server Vcenter Heartbeat

    Firefox worked, then update it does not start. I tried all the fixes; However, the Profile Manager is not accessible or even present in the execution file. I unintalled and reinstalled several times, but I still can't get it to work. There is no Windows or Norton firewall block so I do not understand. What can I do? I want to use Firefox because it's the best browser; but now I'm forced to use Oscar. It's not terrible, but I prefer the features I've had with Firefox

    I had upgraded to the latest version; but the thought of demotion to the version which worked perfectly. In the end, I had to defrag, do a registry clean and optimization of performance of PC, but for the upgrade launched. So, I'm happy to say that I reply to this post with my Firefox browser.
