First off thanks for any help and for reading the thread.
I have a Sony Vaio Laptop. Model VPCEE3WFX. After a few blue screens and reboots I can no longer get the laptop to power up.
Things I do have:
When I press the power button I get a green light for about 2 seconds then the light goes off.
I have an orange light next to the Battery icon.
I have a green light on the Sony AC power adapter.
Things I do not have:
I do not hear any CPU fans turn on.
I do not hear a POST.
I do not hear a hard drive spinning.
I do not see any light on the LCD screen.
Things I have tried:
I contacted Sony Support Chat and they linked to here: http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1026553
So I have followed those steps.
I have disconnected and reconnected the Battery.
I have unplugged and reconnected the RAM memory.
I have tried to connect the AC into the computer without the battery pack connected.
I am afraid I have a MOBO or hardware issue that will require an expensive Sony repair.
Does anyone know of any more trouble shooting steps I can do to find the problem?
