Hi everyone,
I hope this post is in the right sub-forum.
My laptop is an about 2 year-old IBM Thinkpad R51 that had a few issues in the past which, though, didn`t bother me too much.
A few days ago then, while playing a Winamp video, it suddenly froze.
Since this has happened before, I didn`t give it too much consideration. Reboot and it was fine.
Yesterday while opening a pdf document, the same thing happened, but this time when I tried to restart it, the only things that happened were the fan starting up and a few LEDs flashing up.
If you listen really closely to where the hard drive is sitting, you can hear that something in there is spinning, but it just won`t "pick up" and boot.
After a few tries it worked until yesterday night, and this morning no reboot could awaken it at all.
I`m all out of wits by now and would be really glad if anybody could give me a heads up on how to get it back running.
Thanks.
