henge, you might want to check on here. Those Dells' are prone to failure, especially the hard drive. Check your RAM as well. Good Luck.

came on after many attempts a month ago getting less reliable in switching on, runs great when its going but now it wont start. battery seems fine. thanks for takin the time.

henge,

Do any of your LED's come on or do they blink? Have you tried an external monitor to make sure that it is not just your LCD?
