I have a toshiba satellite pro. One day I turned it off and went out and when I came back it turned on then immediately off. If I hold the power button it does this repeatedly until I take out battery. It shuts off instantly, I can't even make it to the bios. I've tried a hard reset, switching ram and using a monitor. Nothing has worked so far. I want to know if I can solve this or if I have to take it to a shop. Oh and one more thing. If I take out my ram it turns on but has a black screen.
switch off the laptop
Remove the RAM.(How many RAM you have?)
Remove the battery.
Reseat the RAM
connect it to direct power adapter.
switch on the laptop
ok I found out something new. if I have it turned on without ram and have the black screen, it wont turn off with power button, I have to remove my charger. hope its a good clue to the solution
the dude said it was my graphics card. he said £25 for checking and if it is graphics card £75 to replace. I told my dad not to take the offer cuz I know very well that you cant replace a graphics card on a toshiba satellite. gettinf a new laptop :D
