Working on a Sony Vaio PCG-2J3L won't boot, and no display, any ideas?
my friend asked me to look at a Vaio PCG-2J3L VISTA HOME PREMIUM, WHICH
WON'T BOOT, AND THE DISPLAY SHUTS OFF AFTER TWO SECONDS, I HAVE DETERMINED
THAT THE MOUSE, AND KEYBOARD WORK, BUT AS SOON AS THE BIOS PAGE, OR BOOT
ORDER PAGE IS DISPLAYED, (AFTER HITTING THE APPROPRIATE KEYS) THE SCREEN
GOES BLANK (BLACK) THE HDD LIGHT BLINKS, AND THE WIRELESS LIGHT LIGHTS UP,
THEN THE WHOLE PROCESS STARTS OVER AGAIN, I HAVE RESEATED THE RAM TWICE,
DETERMINED THE DATE AND TIME ARE CORRECT, (SO IT'S NOT THE MB BATTERY) AND
TRIED LOADING A BOOTABLE "VISTA HOME PREMIUM " OPERATING SYSTEM DISK. ALL
TO NO AVAIL. I'M ALMOST CERTAIN THE MACHINE IS INCAPABLE OF BOOTING FROM
THE "D:" DRIVE, AND I CAN'T SEE THE BIOS LONG ENOUGH TO MAKE THE NECESSARY
CHANGES. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEAS ON WHAT I CAN TRY NEXT? THANKS,
RICHARD.
