Inspiron 2650 Dead?
Hi Everyone!
Need a bit of advice. My hubs has the Inspiron 2650 laptop that he uses for work. Today he gets to work and turns it on to nothing. It won't do anything, screen is blank (like it is off), etc. Is it toast? Is the mother board the culprit and fried? Anyway to get it to power up/boot up? The only thing that comes on is the green light, like it is on, but that's it. Green light that is the furthest left of the 3.
Any tips and help would be appreciated. Although I do think it may be hopeless.
Thanks bunches!

If the hardrive is the problem then you could replace it.Hardrives last for 4 years.1d49f54a95134b2

Is there a VGA blue port on the back of your unit?
You should be able to connect to a monitor and see what happens.1d49f54a95134b2

Well no beeps is a bit of a good sign.
So nothing happens when you switch it on? Have you tried it on a different monitor?
