Can you pls elaborate a bit. What machine, what platform, what application, etc etc.

Regret to tell you that this may be due to multiple circuit damages as the motherboard is located rite underneath the keyboard. I suggest you not to try starting-up the laptop as this may cause further damage. Take it to a hardware shop and they would be able to diagnose the problem precisely.

Dear user,

Please also try Fn+ F7, or the key that has a box with a hand on it. hold it for some time each time you try

haha

Have you tried holding the power button down until it shuts down completely, then unplug the AC adapter, remove the battery, put it all back together then try powering back up?

Find a tear down guide for your laptop. You'll want to get to the connection beneath the keyboard and see if the connection can be reseated. This will probably fix the problem. It could also be damaged, in which case you'll need a replacement.

One trick I always use is going to start>run>type msconfig> startup menu. remove as much as possible here of items you don't need to run at startup. this will speed your machine up.

Check BIOS if all RAM is being picked and or set to max on RAM settings.Upgrading BIOS! If it isn't broken don't fix it. Upgrading is a scapegoat fix, and many manufactures have a disclaimer. "You are on you own, and the likes for a reason. Most solutions are found elsewhere.However, if you truly need to update read this to help you with the upgrade.http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/10things/10-common-mistakes-you-should-avoid-when-flashing-your-bios/357GLPS. Many applications are written for 32 bit, hence they are unable to fully utilize 64 bit and may be bound to 4GB.

Overheating When the CPU overheats then it will shut down (i.e. thermal overload) and won't boot up again until it has cooled down. If this is the problem is not fixed then the CPU will eventually fail. A faulty fan causes the problem or the fan and heat sink assembly are clogged with dust. Check the CPU fan to see if it spins freely, if not replace the fan. If the fan and heat sink is clogged with dust the remove the dust and make sure the vents are clear and dust free. Use a small brush and can of compressed air to do this.

You need to find out why your laptop is overheating, usual suspect is dust, make sure that your heatsink ribs and the fan are clear from dust, could also be worth putting new heatsink paste on the processor and graphics chip

take it to a professional for inspection, there are too many possibilities for me to guess over the internet, needs to be looked at in person.

Remove main battery and try again, next! sub out one ram stick at a time testing as you go, if still no result! check power adapter for correct voltage, if okay! the motherboard needs to be assessed.

Most laptop keyboard are secured by screws on the bottom of the laptop. The screws that fix the keyboard may have a tiny heyboard symbol against the screw.When you remove the keyboard screws you can then lift the keyboard off the laptop. The keyboard is connected to the motherboard via a flat ribbon cable, it may have a connector on the cable or a locking clip on the motherboard. Release this ribbom cable from the motherboard, don't pull on this cable or you may damage the ribbon cable.Keyboard replacement, LCD screens for mobile phones, Ipodsand computer equipment are available from this WEB site.http://www.yallstore.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&zenid=1lrjst3ncshlb4c7frn9bev3c3&keyword=keyboards.

Check and see if the hard drive came loose check the bios to see if it is recognized..It is saying there is nothing with an O/S on it and when you put the disk in it does not register a hard drive to restore..Check the hard drive and start the computer up and see if you can cancel the restore and start the laptop up regular..

Hi aprilbonham,

I recommend contacting your computer manufacturer and ask assistance with their technical support. Ask if they could repair the system even you accidentally dropped the computer. Most of physical damage voids out the warranty so you need to contact them to check if your system is still in warranty and can cover induced damage.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for using FixYa

The fan may be running too slow (faulty bearing) or the fan and heat sink assembly may be clogged with dust.
Check the CPU fan to see if it spinsfreely, if not replace the fan. If the fan and heat sink is clogged withdust the remove the dust and make sure the vents are clear and dust free. Use acan of compressed air to do this.
