Load flashes 3 times (NO MEMORY)

Ok.  I have 2 almost identical machines.  One is a Compaq CQ57-229WM and a HP 2000-2B19WM.  They share a large number of components such as batteries, chargers, memory, etc... It's the 2000 is Windows 8.0, it's hard enough for my elderly mother of 69 year to Win7 and IMPOSSIBLE for her to understand Win8 without touchscreen interface, so I went down there to Win7 and it worked fine... for a while.  He kept getting slower and slower and finally got the point of being useless.  I ordered a set of food DVD and he would give Win8, mother mine and use the 2000 myself.  I read the instructions, started how the flyer said, and he began to fix the system.  20 seconds, he froze and would not answer and finally turn off.  It was plugged, but I thought that the battery can have died and grabbed my Compaq battery (same reference by the way), put in there and nothing.  I thought nothing of it since I had been using my Compaq and it had been left unplugged for a few days and thought the battery on this subject was dead too.  I swapped batteries back, plugged in the Compaq and the a/c charging light came not.  I pressed the power button and the a/c flashed light 3 times and went.  I put the battery in the HP unit and you press the power button and the button itself barely (more than a quick "glow" than a flicker) flashes and a/c light flashes 3 times.  I swapped the memory on the Compaq with a new memory (since flash 3 code if for bad memory module) and nothing... still 3 flashes.

Anyone want to try stabbed at it?  I think that the battery has lost his "condition memory", but which do I put a new battery in as they both do the same thing now?  AND if that is the case, how do I get the HP restore Win8 on it if all it's going to short-circuit batteries?

The rental, it is set awhile with no battery solved the problem.

  • Pavilion dv7-6b22ed qj376EA: white screen on startup / lock flashes 3 times HP Pavilion dv7 of uppercase letters

    Hello

    Hope someone can help out me.

    First of all, we have received INTELLIGENT warnings but we were still able to start Windows in safe mode (took about 15 minutes and the laptop was getting hot). We took out the HARD drive and connected it via USB to another PC. Could not read the content and need to format the drive... has NOT done that. We have kept the 'Original' HARD drive

    We bought a Samsung EVO 850 250 GB SSD for laptop... as replacement for the corrupt and to modernize the system. The main battery has been removed, the adapter is not plugged in for a few days. Today we received the new SSD and installed IT... but... the laptop don't boot! The screen remains blank. The F12 is the orange light and the CAPS LOCK flashes 3 times.

    We read several articles on the forums and tried several suggestions:

    -Changed the BIOS battery;

    -Several "resets hard":

    . remove the adapter and the main battery and pressed the button for 15 seconds;

    . Windows key, B and starting power;

    . by pressing F8 during startup;

    -build the original HARD drive back;

    -Remove the memory and tried all the banks in the locations;

    -connected to an external monitor.

    -boot via bootable USB drive.

    -clean the cooler fans (with a jet of compressed air);

    -tried another AC adapter;

    -tried without main battery;

    -tried to start without memory, no battery of the BIOS and no HARD drive installed.

    No matter what we tried... after trying all the suggestions of the screen remains empty and the LOCKING of UPPER continues to blink 3 times repeatedly.

    Anyone any idea what ik can try again? In my perception the BIOS does not load?

    Look forward to reading your suggestions! Thanks in advance

    Best regards

    Thanks Malygris1...

    ... but I found this list of that's why I placed the memory banks in all possible combinations. And banks have even tried in another laptop and it works great... All week I anything with the laptop since last Sunday... plugged the adapter and you press the power button... a cursor blinked my eyes... then the HP logo... several... error messages but I saw something back to the screen telling me it was "wrong".

    Build in the SSD... did some bios checks (memory and disk). Everything was OK! So I installed W7 and found all the drivers... updating the software of the BIOS... everything works stable right now.

    In my perception, because the power has been turned off for a few days, the BIOS was not loaded at startup (or POST). After a week with a new BIOS battery and the main battery... system had enough power in the 'circuits and components' at startup...

    One last thing... that I cost a lot of time: under the main battery... you will find the model number. During the download and installation of the drivers for this model number, I had a lot of mistakes... Then I used the HP support tool to determine what model number, I was working on and what drivers to download. Tool gave me another number and model for this model, all the drivers were good. I wonder why the wrong number was printed on the box?

    This message can be closed. Thanks again Malygris1 for the reply.

  • T450S does not start, button / stop flashes 3 times

    I have a T450S which is a few months. It worked fine until the other day when it wouldn't turn on.

    When I push the power button, the Green LED flashes three times. Then, the LEDs on the keys F1, F4 and Fn comes on for a few seconds and turns off.

    Here is what I tried:

    -Load for a long period.

    -Remove the battery for an extended period.

    -Remove the battery and now the power button for 60 seconds.

    -By pressing the button in the hole reset of emergency.

    Nothing has made any difference. Any ideas?

    Update: I called Lenovo support and send it for repair.

    Dear customer,

    Welcome and thanks for posting your question on the Forum of Support HP

    It seems that your laptop has a blank screen and a blinking/flashing CAPSLOCK all the time

    If the Capslock LED flashes 3 times this means "Non-functional memory error", in order to solve the problem, replace the card memory

    Note: If you are comfortable open Notepad, you can check how much you have memory module. If you have 2 sticks of memory, you can test one at a time on the two slots individually to check if the fault is with the module module slot or memory memory your laptop [repeat the same steps to test another memory module]

    If you find the above steps difficult and that it is a hardware problem and I recommend you contact HP Support by phone for further assistance immediately to get your diagnostic Notebook and repaired by an authorized HP Certified Engineer

  • Does not start my HP DC7100, red flashing 5 times?

    My HP DC7100-won't start and when I turn it on it flashes the red light 5 times, I searched and apparently, this meant that it was a mistake of memory, now, I thought it was kind of weird because the RAM worked fine before this incident. Although this was immediately after I did something, the case was not properly and I pushed in place and then the screen is blurry and it turns off automatically. Then I tried to start it and now it flashes 5 times and I have not yet installed all additional Rams, are the RAM that came with it. Help, please!

    Anyone?

    Yes, I'm afraid so.

    Unit does not illuminate. When the Start button / stop is pressed with power cord only or with the battery and the power cord or battery only I get 3 flashes of the white LED on the side of the unit next to the power supply.

    I replaced the receiver taken power in the change of unit No.....

    I put the two don't chip memory in one at a time... no change!

    I'm out of solutions short of replacement motherboard which is not profitable unless I want to take a chance on a reduced opportunity to the Board of Directors.

    Only the indication of all this work are three white flashes of LED is located just next to which DC adapter/cable plugs?

    Thank you!

    I had to contact HP and according to them the power port led flashes 3 times after pressing the power on button, indicates a failure of the motherboard and requires a replacement.

  • dv4-1365dx caps and scroll lights Flash 4 times.

    When I turn on my computer, the hard drive starts but stops. The lights on the bar (next to the power button) turns on, but the screen does not work. Then, the caps lock and scroll Flash 4 times in sequence. My warranty expired last year, what should I do to fix my problem?

  • Not happy with screen loading Flash, ideas?

    Hi all

    New'sh to using Flash, but have over the time used with different add - we create effects of all kinds.

    What I was asking is, when the screen of my website is loading Flash content can take a second or two to load and I want to say it is an area with a white border and and little 'x' in the left corner. Has been a customer and he did on their computer also.

    Take a look at my index screen to see what I mean http://www.jazconsultancy.co.uk/

    This is how it is or is there something I can do to sort, like getting rid of the border, or something?

    I use SlideshowPro and Eff Flash with Flash CS4 so no mega actually Flash from scratch so go easy on me if this requires some code crazy or something . Thank you.

    Just search for 'flash preloader' in a search engine. There are thousands.
