Do you see the hard drive listed in the BIOS?
If not, probably a hard drive issue - but strange you can't boot from a CD.
Did you reset the BIOS to defaults? If it is a BIOS issue, you could try and flash it to a newer one (if it exists) but if it goes wrong you could brick your computer.

I had a failing hard drive in a laptop which would not boot up. I bought one of those converter things (laptop IDE to full IDE) so I could hook it up to my desktop pc as a slave. I was able to access all the data and transfer it to the new hard drive in the laptop. If you have a SATA connection on the laptop hard drive and your other computer then I don't think an adapter would be needed.

This usually happens when a unit needs more RAM. Get as much as can fit.. Also get KMPLayer, this works with everything and is better than anything else

This may sound out there, but try lessening the sensitivity of your Touchpad, go to properties/options for it, and set it little lower, this often "Fixes" problems such as this..

Is the adapter you have,the right make and model? Is the power plug the right voltage,amprage,and the right ohms? Does your laptop have a battery? Did it come with a recharger? Get Dell online and ask them about your computer's power systems.

OK, get a Windows DVD and Boot on it and try to do a "Repair" install. If that doesn't work then you will simply have to do a total re-installation, from DVD.

Where the screen hinges to the base, on the right side, is the power button. On the side of the screen, at its pivot point.

THis happens because (a) the disk you entered is scratched, or not a recognised format or (b) your cd rom is broken. try insertin another disk. if the problem persists, try cleaning it. if all else fails, buy a new drive.

Hi,

First thing you should do was to do a diagnostic in F12 run the diagnostic for CD DVD so that you could verify the functionality of the parts. It's still in warranty you can still asked for repair or system exchange .

Try to get into the safe mode state and than see what happens. Right after you restart the laptop, press on the F12 or F8 to activate safe mode.
