If you have replaced it with a brand new battery, I'd check to see if there are any plastic coverings on the contacts of the battery, if there isn't try letting your battery charge up to full before trying to use it.

Are there are any error messages?

Hello,Try pressing on F8 once it's starting up to boot to safe mode. Use the arrow keys to highlight safe mode and hit enter. If you see the same problem inside safe mode then you need to replace the monitor of your computer. If you don't see it in safe mode, then you just need to update the video driver of your computer. You can use RadarSync to scan and update the drivers. David

Try another Cord/Charger. Has there been any damage? Drop? A pull on the cord while plugged in damaging the AC jack? What happens if you remove the battery and use the AC cord only? Post what happens when you push the on/off switch, Fan spins? LED's Blink? Anything on the screen? Have you reseated the Memory mods, removed and tested the HDD? Tried a System Restore/Recovery? Need more info.

Forgive me for stating the obvious but it's on the motherboard. You probably need to dismantle the laptop to find it. Try using google and type in your model number followed by disassembly guide and see what you get.You should find a video or something with description and pictures how to take it apart step by step.

Which OS and version?

BIOS Setup utility?Dell laptop?Lot of information here.......let me see if I can sift through it.........Post the model number in a Comment.The model number can be found on the Bottom of the laptop.As soon as you turn your laptop on, watch for the Dell logo screen.WATCH the bottom of the screen.What key does it state to press, to - enter BIOS Setup?Write it down.If Windows loads let it load, and run a few minutes. Then turn the laptop off normally.THIS time AS SOON AS you press the Power On button, start tapping on that BIOS Setup key.Tap in 2 second intervals.You may hear beeps. Those are Stuck Key Error Code beeps, and it is you that is doing it. Ignore them.This will get you into the BIOS Setup utility.If Windows doesn't load, press the CTRL key, and ALT key, and DELete key, AT THE SAME TIME.This will restart your laptop, and start tapping on that enter BIOS Setup key.For additional questions please post in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette

When my fan runs loud this usually means the heatsink behind the fan is clogged with dust. So your fan is working harder to get the same amount of cooling. Just go buy a can of compressed air belower and spray that clogged dust out of your heatsink

Step 1: Most of the programs running in the background of your computer start automatically during PC reboot. These applications were added to the Windows startup menu during default installation. However, you probably do not need all of the programs that are currently running on your computer all the time. This only slows down your PC and the reboot time. Fortunately, you can access the Windows startup menu and remove the programs you do not need to have running automatically. Turning off the programs shuts them down until you enable them again through the "Start" menu. Go to the "Start" menu, type "msconfig" in the "Start Search" box and press "Enter" to start the System Configuration utility. Click the "Startup" tab in the System Configuration window. Uncheck the programs that you want to turn off and stop from running in the background. Click "Apply" and "OK" to save the new settings. Restart your computer.

Bootmgr means Boot manager error. Either you have a hard disk drive problem or your OS(operating system software) is corrupted. Run diagnostics to see if your hard drive or anything else hardware wise has a problem. If all tests pass then your OS is probably corrupted and needs to be reinstalled.
