zidane10,
It’s necessary to disassemble the laptop and check all connections inside. Reseat all cables and internal parts.
First, try reconnecting parts you can access without disassembling the laptop. Reconnect memory, hard drive, DVD drive, etc…

My dell inspiron 600m laptop is not turning on after i accidently dropped it on the floor. Everytime I hit the power button, the fans and lights go on, but then it shuts off within about three seconds.and nothing appear on the screen..just blank..
What’s going on? I wouldn’t mind losing all the data on it but I’d rather not. Is there anything I can do, or am I going to have to take it into a computer repair shop?

Elie,
If your LCD screen is dark but you still can see a very dim image, replacing the inverter board can help.
You’ll find display disassembly instructions for Dell Inspiron B130 in this service manual.

Nabil,
Maybe the DC power jack is broken or loose and has to be replaced or resoldered? It’s necessary to remove the motherboard and take a closer look at the power jack. This guide will be helpful. DC power jack repair guide. Do-it-yourself instructions.

What are the chances that it is the inverter that caused my dell b130 screen to go dark ? The laptop is about 4 years old. Where do I find instructions to take the inverter out of the screen ?

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 which can not be directly powered by its adapter nor the battery is charging. the adapter had bare wires and i believe they could of touched each other and probably caused a short. At first i thought the adapter went bad so i bought a new one and the battery is still not charging nor the computer is running off of the adapter.The only way to currently use this laptop is to charge the battery through another laptop. I also checked the new adapter on another laptop and it is working fine. I am wondering if i could of burnt a fuse / regulator that i can change out. any help is appreciated.

cj2600,
Unfortunately with the hard drive removed, I still cannot access to the setup. I only get 2 messages
hard drive not found which is normal and
fixed optical drive not found even if it is still in place.
