Mark Stevenson,
1. Could be bad AC adapter. Maybe it’s not working properly. Try replacing the AC adapter first.
2. If you get the same problem with a new adapter, most likely this is motherboard failure. You’ll have to replace the motherboard.

I have a Dell Latitude D510. It was working fine but the following problem has occured. When switching on , all the led’s light up for about 3 or 4 seconds then switch off. I cannot get the pc to switch on. I have checked the RAM and even replace the DIMM with no success. I have also disassembled the whole laptop and checked all connections with now success. I have a small pc repair business, so I am familiar with the technicalities and repair techniques. Please advise
Many thanks

Dell inspiron 1000 screen blacks out when (even slightly) adjusting position of screen towards close or open. The HD LED and power LED stay lit. No HD spin or fan. 3-finger salute does nothing. Can only do hard shut down and power up to revive. I have no problem if I just touch or squeeze the display; only problem when pivoting on hinges or when shaking the desk enough to adjust the display’s position. If it’s open at 90 degrees, for example, and I then open it to 91 degrees or close it to 89 degrees, display and fan shut off. As if sleeping. I exposed the hinges and made sure the sleep switch is not being triggered. Could it be a short in the cable running from the system board to the display? if so, where to get it and how to replace?
I’d appreciate any thoughts before I send it to Dell hell (recycling center)?
Thanks

I have a Dell Inspiron 2200. When starting the machine the Dell logo briefly flashes up on the screen. The hard drive continues to run and I can only barely see my desktop by holding a flash light/torch very close to the screen. I have tried adjusting the brightness, but to no avail.
Any ideas or help, much appreciated.

” I think you’ll have to replace the motherboard.”
cj2600 it may be a faulty connector, try reseating the HDD. If it is a bad solder joint or a hairline crack in a track a trick i used to use was open the machine and get the room dark. Then press the board in the place where you think the problem lies\. if you are lucky you may see a spark where the break is, then you can bridge it with a piece of wire. Only works where there is a good current flowing, and watch out for any areas of high voltage.

drew,
Search for “Inspiron e1705 laptop” on eBay and you’ll get the idea.

AL,
Unfortunately, your description sounds like a problem with the motherboard. Apparently there is a bad solder joint somewhere on the board and when you apply pressure on the bottom, you “fix” it temporarily. I think you’ll have to replace the motherboard.

James Stahlaman,
Do you know if your laptop has a discrete video card? In most laptops the video card is integrated into the motherboard and cannot be removed and replaced separately.
If you have a discrete video card, you should be able to follow instructions in the Dell service manual.

I need to install a new video card for my C810 Dell. How do I do this
