Well my laptop was working perfectly when I left the house for a few hours, still running. Then when I got back the computer was on but when I slid my finger it didn't show anything. I turned it off and then tried turning it on and I realized something, not all of the lights lit up. there are 3 light but only 2 showed. I do believe that this has something to do with the CMOS and that it had something to do with the BIOS. I have tried everything and it leads me down to this, can someone tell me on what I need to do specifically.

I will be polite and say hello!

Have you ever heard of flea power?

Try this to remove it:

1. Remove the battery and cable.

2. Press and hold the power button for 58 seconds.

3. Replug the cable and start.

Good luck

Thanks for doing this for the community, I thought that I wouldn't get a reply in a decade. But it didn't work, do I need to have a battery before I start this operation? I had broke mines 5 years ago when I was 8 years old. I do believe that I had seen something inside of the laptop that had looked like a phone battery screwed in with 2 screws and a black transparent like strand no farther than a cm wide. It had looked like it was broken off when I had seen the same material under the strange thing like a phone battery. I think this might be why but no one had bothered it since I had been gone.

P.S I am a bit weird my digital drawings are of cats, I can't stay away from sketching them.
