I tried reseating the 2x2GB sticks of RAM, nothing. Tried replacing battery, which is fully charged and disconecting AC power, same result. I can repeat the process over and over with the same results. I never expected to get a reply so quickly. Does it fail when the battery is removed? Maybe one of the modules failed and the laptop will start properly when you removed the failed module. when i press power on button led blink one time and after it this go dead each time, Found out that the laptop hard drive was not connecting correctly therefore causing the power issue..
