[QUOTE="Philipdru, post: 914538, member: 123004"] I knew about the battery and had tested the reset button, though I tried it again after reading your post, just to be on the safe side. Nothing lit up, but I poked around the internals a bit while I was there - you know, making sure no plugs had come loose and so forth. The last one I tried was tucked away in a narrow space beside the main hard drive carriage, directly underneath the optical drives and On/Off button. I don't know whether it was moving this or the pressing the reset button that did it but either way it started up as normal after that. Obviously a loose connection of some sort. That was yesterday evening....at which point I promptly lost my internet connection until about ten minutes ago. Belated thanks for your consideration and advice. Fingers crossed there are no further problems. Cheers:) [/QUOTE]
