[QUOTE="thomas998, post: 1027435, member: 111388"] One question is how long did it run after the time you dropped it and the time it shut down.... is it possible that the fall knocked a connection between the mag board and the battery loose? I mean it could be possible that you were running on batteries only after the fall and even if the thing is charging no juice could be getting to the battery itself... Simply because the mag light comes on doesn't mean that its passing the current to the battery. I would bet money against it being a logic board problem if it ran for any time at all after the drop. Most drops that would damage the logic board would cause instant damage. If you knew someone with the same model you could always drop their fully charged battery in and see if it starts to work... if so then you would know it was something between the mag board and the battery... if it still didn't work with a fresh battery it would be something other than the mag board [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
