when in doubt. take all the batteries out. unplug it. let it sit for a sec. then put the batteries in and plug it in. see if that helps if it doesnt. remove all the power again. then enter the bios on the next reboot prior to entering any operating systems and reset the BIOS to default. then go on from there, etc. if that doesnt help. *consider* removing the cmos battery if it has one. i say consider because vital things might get permanently frobbed. if the cmos battery is soldered on, dont do it. if it's just in a slip contact. it's probably ok to remove it and then reconfigure everything from scratch. my particular laptop hp 800ct get's it's cardbus slots hosed if i boot windows. i have to depower to fix it...
