Hey people, I was using my laptop, about to log in, when BANG. The screen went scrambled. I turned it off by holding down the power button and then rebooted it. It then got to the log in screen (in normal windows mode) and I went to log in but the laptop just shut down. I tried to turn it back on, but it would not turn on?!
I did some searching on the net, and people have said, take the battery out, disconnect the power and hold down the power button for 45 seconds. I did that, and hey presto! The laptop is back on! Supposedly it's to do with the CMOS battery? Can anyone explain that to me??
