Presario v2000 stuck in hibernation, can't power it up

Hi. My Compaq v2000 went into hibernation mode because the battery power got low, now I can't power it up using the a-c cord. I can see that power is getting to the notebook because one of the indicator lights is flashing, but nothing happens after that. I pushed down the power button and held it for 30 seconds, nothing. Then removed the battery and tried powering it up on a-c alone. Nothing. Any suggestions?

    The solution suggested by the expert didn't work...take out battery, wait 5 minutes, put battery back in, hook up cord, wait 10-15 minutes, then try to power up. Any other ideas out there?

Try booting into the BIOS Screen and resetting to factory defaults. If that fails suggest swapping the hard drive out and re-install the Operating System - Save your old data and migrate the data off the old drive. You can buy an external drive adapter to connect the harddrive to a USB port to migrate you data.
Good Luck!

Will not come on

Verify that your AC adapter is working. There should be a light that comes on when it is connected to indicate that the battery is being charged. If the power adapter is okay, your system may have locked up during the hibernation cycle and needs to be reset. Hold down the power button for 10 seconds, release it, wait 5 seconds, then press it once. If that doesn't work, remove and re-install the battery with the power disconnected, then try again. If you still cannot get it to power up then something may have failed inside your notebook.

Compaq presario V2000 doesn't start

It sounds like one of the most frequent failure for a laptop, the plug on the back of your laptop is probably broken. Check if it's loose, try to move the plug until you get the orange light. If it's the case, someone need to resolder/replace the plug on the motherboard.

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
