T500 died suddenly...

My T500 died suddenly... No power seems to be entering the laptop at all. I confirmed the AC, the battery and the ram are all OK.

I tried to remove the battery, holding the power button for 30 seconds, remove the ram/hard/ultrabay drive, etc. Nothing works. After I have plugg AC to the laptop, the led bars show AC. However, as soon as I press the power button all the lights are off. Without the memory live, the laptop didn't do not matter what 1-3-3-1 beep...

I searched online and also in this forum and must unfortunately conclude that it is the motherboard is dead... Maybe consider buying a new laptop since my T500 is already 4 years... Too bad I really like it and did a lot of upgrade over the past four years (1280 x 800--> screen 1920-1200 screen, hdd-> ssd 4 GB-> 8 GB, cd-> ram ultrabay..)

Sorry to hear that, it looks like your motherboard is really toast. But get a planar replacement should not be expensive today, especially as the Intel models only.

If you were satisfied with the performance, it would be useful to keep it IMHO, especially since you have contributed up to the top.

My grain of salt

  • T61p died suddenly. So sick of these problems!

    It is the 3rd bad experience with my T61p since I bought it in August 2008. Less than 18 months.

    1. the Palm cracked within three months of purchase. After many telephone conversations, he was replaced by Lenovo for free.

    2. last month (December 2009), the famous FRU 42 T 4511 battery died suddenly without significant deterioration and it is not included in the replacement program.

    3. tonight, when I went back to the computer just after 30 minutes, I saw a totally black screen. I thought he was asleep, but he could not wake up. So I forced to close. When later, I pressed the power button, nothing happened. The only 2 things were the light of power and load.

    Fortunately, I bought a 3 year warranty. So I called Lenovo and said something. I removed all power supplies (in fact only 1 because the battery already dead) and you press the power button for at least 15 seconds. Then, still nothing. I'll call Lenovo tomorrow morning and see how my computer will be repaired.

    Again, this is my last computer purchased from Lenovo.

    Track update

    As expected, a young man called me the morning, 28 Jan and came home. He used 4 screwdriver to remove at least 50 screws. Finally, the motherboard was removed and replaced by a new one. After putting all the pieces together, the young man has tested my T61p briefly. It worked. But Vista says I was victim of counterfeit software. I just call Microsoft to activate Vista.

    Not too bad. But I still buy nothing from Lenovo due to the very bad experience of the battery.

  • IPhone 6s died suddenly

    Hello everyone, something really weird happened today with my iPhone 6s, she really worked very well, the battery was good, I mean good period, I was also on the latest version of the firmware. I was listening to music when it stopped suddenly, I was listen to via spotify, I thought it was the internet that failed, but when I tried to unlock it, by pressing the home button with the finger that has nothing past... Well, I tried to restart after that, but no signal of life too, the following hypothesis was perhaps the battery which has not, so I tried to connect the charger, but no signal too, the screen isn't just turn on, I plugged into itunes to see if it has been detected in any State of recovery, but not... It is not the case...

    I also tried to hold the power + home for 10, 20, 30, 60 seconds with no difference.

    Can someone please give me some information in the present? What could fail?

    Thank you.

    Your 6 s iPhone is under warranty - if it is still in the country where it was purchased.

    Take it to an Apple Store or Service Center authorized Apple and let them evaluate what went wrong.

  • My hard drive died suddenly, and after that I am unable to find my old favorites (used the synchronization of the former). Bookmarks are on your server, can I get back them?

    I have the key to firefox sync (used for synchronization of the former) and everything, but of course it is unnecessary with the new synchronization system. One of my ideas was to connect to my office computer, sync all bookmarks, and then switch to the new sync - but unfortunately being unused for years, it turns out that the monitor was dead, and the graphics card seemed to be roasted (felt like it anyway).

    Any ideas?

    This may not work (Firefox sync isn't a backup system, so this will probably fail), but it's worth a try:

  • X 61 Tablet died suddenly

    I was using a Thinkpad X 61 Tablet for several years. A few days ago I found the Tablet cannot be turned on. I hear a little noise when I use the battery to start. Looks like this noise may come from the battery and the mothboard. It is not the noise of the fan. While the passage to the provided AC mode, the noise is gone. I tried several times to power the computer, but it cannot be turned on.

    I have known such a wired problem before, but I got the computer successfully in pressing and releasing the power button for a long time without battery/power front with power supply. But now I forget how to manipulate in details and impossible to turn on the computer after many trials.

    I hope I can get a solution here. Thank you for your attention.

    Best wishes

    Have you tried using a different power adapter for your X 61? I would try that first if you haven't; I had a laptop once, that does not illuminate and it's the adapter. It's worth a shot.

  • Sudden death Firefox on Windows XP Professional

    Hello. Firefox handles beautifully years when he died suddenly. Had a lot of 'terrible WARNING' messages. I don't not updated to the latest version as it said it was for Windows 8, which I am not running. What should do?

    Hello

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

      Click the close button

      ).

    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

    Please report to say if this helped you!

    Thank you.
