Laptop Problems - HELP!

[rlculver]

Hi,

I have a Dell Inspiron 1150 laptop and currently having major issues.

The laptop is continually blue screening with STOP errors. Also, after the stop error, you then have a hard job to start the laptop. When you turn the laptop on, you get a power light, (battery light flashing orange, even when fully charged) and the CAPS lock button is flashing.

Their no post on screen and then laptop does this for about 5 – 10 seconds and then powers off.

I feel this is a main board fault ? – Correct?

The laptop is also very slow etc.

I have also tried taking the battery out and powering the laptop via mains – still same problem!

Any other things I can try?

Thanks

Robert

Is it still under warranty?

have you recently added anything? New stick of memory? Try without it if you have two sticks.

If not ...try taking memory out and resitting it. Ofen a cause of blue screen failure.

Listen closely to laptop Make sure you can hear fan going round. In Compaq and Hp ones if they stop within a few seconds of start up it blue screens.
might be cpu/fan failure.
