Of all the luck. My work laptop has packed in on me. Good and proper!
Was using it yesterday evening, shut it down, went back to use it an hour or so later and it wouldn't fire up!
It switches on, power light coms on, caps/num lock lights flash, and that's it. Screen stays resolutely blank and dark, and the hard disk does nowt. None of the keys elicit any kind of response, there are no beeps, nothing.
It's a Lenovo (IBM) T43; don't suppose anyone knows owt about 'em?
My guess is that something hardware-ish is fecked, but cos it's a work machine I'm not allowed to take it to bits and find out! Ho hum, cue a month or so waiting for the incompetents of the IT dept. and its useless Indian call centre to finish making a complete b***ocks of sorting it :bang:
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
