Im trying to help out a friend who owns a Compaq Paserio 1020.
There is no sign of "life" when I plug her laptop in, either w/ or w/out the battery in position.
When I use the ac adaptor from MY lap top,(and there is not a battery in position) I do get the battery light to flash for about 20 seconds, and when I push the on button I can hear a single click from the speaker but I never get anything else.
The input and polarity of the ac adaptors are the same but the output is just slightly differnt.
However her adaptor works fine on my laptop
I called Compaq tech support and they told me it sounded like I had a problem with the motherboard.
Anybody else have any ideas how I can find out for sure. And if so where can I find a new motherboard.
Thanks alot to anybody who answers....T
