1150 will not turn on
I was hooking up a new printer today. I unpluged the usb and power from my printer and plugged it into the new printer (the printers shared the same plugs). I turn to my laptop to install the drivers and it is off. I thought this was weird because I havent turned it off in a day or two. I try to turn it on and nothing. the only lights I get are the front 3 lights flash when i plug in the power or when I try to turn it on just using the battery. A local shop says something to do with the usb ports interfering.
Any ideas?
Thanks

if your lock lights (caps, scroll, num) is just flashing at you a couple of times and then turning off, whether it is on battery or power, and you have tried reseatting everything, and tried moving the memory around (taking one out and trying one at a time in the slots), then the motherboard needs to be replaced.I had the same problem a couple weeks ago when I plugged in a usb device and it turned out that the usb port had a short in it and it fried the mother board it cost me $350.00 to replace the mother board and now my laptop performs even better than it did when i first bought it new.
