When I turn my laptop on it say, PRESS THE ESC KEY
if you have nothing wrong with the laptop and it start up normally , do nothing
it may have moved to a notice that will go after a few seconds (10)and then proceed to normal start up
if it doesn.t then on pressing the start button hold down the delete key and eventually the bios menu ( start up menu) will come up on the screen
you van make changes to the start up procedures her but be very careful as any changes may get you into bigger trouble that what you have now
if you get the lap top running normally( not touching the bios settings ) press icon in the bottom lh of the task bar( flag in the world ) and that brings up the programs
at the bottom of that list is a search bar
type in chkdsk and then enter and puts the laptop into a check of the disk operation
that operation will find , fix and place the registars in all of the correct positions for all programs , files , folders , photos etc on the disc and will take up to 6 hours to complete if the disc is operating correctly
If you have a mechanical problem with the disc , you will get that message and the only fix is a new hard drive
I need a manual to use with my computer so I know if it still works.

What is CrossFire
You can find info for this on the AMD website, basically it is a way of connecting two identical graphics cards to increase power on a desktop PC, but it has also been applied to a couple of laptop models (most noticably, Alienware).
Laptop wont come on
It is damaged. The whole replacement NX6110 (good working laptop) is available on eBay.com for $50 + shipping, so I think it is easier and cheaper to buy a replacement laptop than to fix this laptop.
New memory nx6110
Did you remove and replace 1 or 2 RAM modules? There are 2 modules installed. One is internal and one is external. Both MUST BE OF THE SAME DENSITY OR THE LAPTOP WILL NOT WORK. You will need a second 1GB RAM Module, then use the link below to download the service manual for your laptop. Accessing the internal RAM module is fairly easy...follow the directions and you will have not problems. You CAN remove the internal one and operate the device on the single 1GB module, but I would recommend if you do that, you put the 1GB module in the internal slot. Then later, if you wish, you can add more RAM without additional disassembly. By doing this you will at least double your RAM from the 512MB you had to !GB. You can double it again with the second RAM Module to 2GB later. .

Intermittent power
verizon put in a shutdown code so you cant get to verizon program to shut it down, the only answer i know of is to install a net hard drive
Don't know why it won't work
You won't be able to. Your on board graphics does not support it. You would have to update your graphics card and with your laptop you are unable to do so.
Problems
You have to remove the wireless card adapter, if it is inserted into one of the accessory card ports on the laptop. If the wireless adapter is installed internally in the computer, consult your user manual on how to remofe the wireless adapter.
