T - 42-'below LCD' (power, etc) status lights dark EXCEPT the wireless light.

I have strange problems with all the ' status lights of below-the-LCD-display (power, battery, Caps Shift etc) being dark EXCEPT the indicator left wireless that works very well. "  All indicators failed at the same time, not one by one.  It seems strange that only indicator of wireless adapter is functioning normally.

Otherwise, it works normally - start button on the screen of the IBM BIOS to XP, etc.  This happens regardless of the fact on battery or AC power.

It is a 15 "2379 - R9U which has been my main workhorse for years.

I have-

1 reinstall the motherboard toward cable Panel and inverter LCD on all ends.

2 replace the inverter think there is a problem of logic (the power of the fluorescent backlight of LCD was going well on the original), and the same behavior occurred.

3 tried reflashing the last BIOS 3.23 with the .exe file downloaded, but he refused because it was the same version not an upgrade.

This could be a faulty cable across the LCD, signs a card dying mother, faulty RAM, etc. ?

Y at - it no diagnosis to test this?

When I had the same problem, a few years before, on my T23 the motherboard has been replaced, fortunately at the time it was still in warranty.

The LEDs are sitting on the inverter. As you have already replaced, I guess it leaves that option to replace the cable to the rule, try it before you can certainly say that it is the motherboard, unless of course others have other ideas.

    Hi all

    Recently my SSID name is not recognized (2.4 and 5 GHZ). These had been configured manually. Looking at the Port of Wireless Router Status indicates that it is empty. I've reconfigured the Basic and wireless settings and I still don't see the SSID, etc. in the wireless Port. Example: The name (SSID) WirelessNet2G. In the wireless Port name (SSID) and any parameters are empty.

    It wasn't a problem until a week ago, when my wireless connections said "out of range".

  • no power and green light on my hp Pavilion flashes

    Hello

    I am trying to understand if the power supply on my hp is bad or not. The green light on the back of the Tower flashes and the computer does not illuminate. I tried all the preliminary things and nothing works, the green light continues to Flash until I disconnect the large plug into the motherboard, then the light remains on and not flashing. Once I unplugged the power cord and the main to the motherboard disconnected thus form, I then tried plugging the power cord disconnected and reconnected then the main to the motherboard plug (kind of try to jump start it up), the fan is trying a (but only for a second, then goes back, so it does not start).

    Does anyone know if this means that the power supply is bad or if something else could be wrong? I wonder if the power would be bad when the computer is clearly trying to start, but not quite making it.

    If the power supply is flashing it must be reset.

    Unplug the power cable from the wall and the power supply.

    move the red switch in the reverse position, in that it is and then bring him back. If you live in the USA 120Vac->-> 120Vac 220Vac see image below.

    After having done that, you can plug the power cable into the power supply.  Connect the wall power cable. If the power supply is still usable is no longer flashes.

    Best regards

  • DeskJet 5550 cartridge status light flashing problem

    I have a Deskjet 5550. The power led is on and the print cartridge status light is FLASHING. Immediately before that, the prints have a lot of black and color.

    I opened and closed the plate on the cartridges.

    I took on each of the two cartridges and put back them in.

    I have looked for "the yellow arrow and icons", but can not find them.

    I turned the printer on and outside.

    I turned off the computer (Compac Presario CG60 - 206US Notebook PC) and rebooted.

    Help! Please, I beg you! Thank you!!!

    Hi mmdb1,

    I understand that the cartridges are not cheap, but to help isolate the problem, try another set of cartridges. If you install a new set and the problem is resolved, you can then contact our technical support line for the replaced defective cartridges.

  • T400 without BACKLIGHT, no status lights on the inverter

    Hello

    Backlight of my t400 died there not too long ago... pinkish hue before he cut out completely is the death, give right outside?

    Apparently it's not the whole story, I replaced the backlight without success then replaced the inverter and don't always show no results.

    An external monitor will work fine and I can see an image on the screen with a flashlight shining on the screen.

    I noticed another symptom though, also the backlight works is not the green status lights on the inverter also do not turn on. However, when I installed the new inverter first I remember lights works but the backlight doesn't work do not.

    What do you think guys?

    A connector/cable problem, a problem of motherboard (fuse?) or UPS (I have a feeling that new one I got is fried).

    Thank you

  • Difficulty in the light on the AC adapter and the power light power on after connect you to the laptop

    HP Pavilion dv3t notebook. Each time get adapter connect to the laptop, it takes at least 10 minutes to get the AC adapter and power indicator light on. Sometimes it does not light on all day.  It always happens any with the battery or not.

    If I start the laptop with the light on the AC adapter and the power light, no matter how I move the power cord, it maintains support, works very well.

    But if I start the laptop without the light on the AC adapter and the power led on even with the, i.e. start with the battery as power, no matter how I move the power cord, the led on the AC adapter and the light, i.e. no charge. He stops until the battery drain.

    I believe that the AC adapter is good. But I have no idea why he has trouble in the light on the AC adapter and the power light on after to connect to the laptop.

    Dv6 had a somewhat similar problem that was treated with a BIOS upgrade. I watched the latest BIOS for your laptop and there is nothing about a problem of load, however. If it works very well and also a long time that you turn it on with the AC plugged in but only has a problem with loading when you connect the adapter Windows runs, I'm tempted to say that it is a software problem as a problem with Windows power management. Maybe if you remove the hard drive, power supply, switch it on with battery only, then plug the adapter when you run in a pre-Windows environment, we can see if the same problem occurs. If it was my cell phone, I would also like to do the update BIOS level, just to see if maybe it would affect something. I could also try to run it from a Linux Live disc any and see if the same problem occurs in another operating system. Last resort I would begin focusing on the issues of possible material, as a module of taking bad AC, which is an other replaceable part that requires no welding.

    Hi mate

    Have Hmm you checked the memory modules?
    Please check if the modules are placed correctly.
    You should also check if you connect the keyboard to the motherboard in the right way.

    Sorry mate but it is difficult to say what s going on here maybe you damaged something during the removal of the keyboard.

  • Dell XPS 420-not power blinking yellow light lamp

    I turned off my computer and when I went to turn back would not turn on.  The power button flashes orange and turned the yellow led on the motherboard.  I tried outlets and power cord of switching with the monitor without result.  I have also all disconnected devices.  Also, I unplugged the power cord and held the power button for 10-20 seconds without result.  Is there anything else I can do.  Also because it is almost 8 years old is it worth repairing.

    It still looks like a power failure

    Replace the power supply, on a scale of 1 to 10, I would say, is a 4.

  • E 7520 HP All - In - One Printer: turn off the power to the wireless printer

    I have not printed for a few days I have not noticed if my Wi - Fi connection worked.

    I tried to print wireless today and got the error message that the printer was not connected to the internet.  I tried to go wrong, but it did not help.  I checked the connection to the wireless router and put the password in.  It has not yet recognized it.  I tried to disable printing for my smart phone (I think it is called), but the screen froze on the circle showing the progress.

    I tried to turn off the printer with the power button, but that no longer works.

    The Wi - Fi light just keeps blinking.

    How can I disable the printer may reset?  Or can you help get my printer to recognize my wireless again?

    Thank you.

    Hi Rhonda, there.

    I would suggest to unplug the power cord from the printer without turning it off with the switch, it will do a reset without getting rid of all the parameters. You simply leave unplugged for about 1-2 minutes to clear out any power.

    I recommend then reconnect, and doing as much as you can from the guide below:

    Printer keeps no connection Wi - Fi

    Good luck and let me know how it goes
