    A huge thanks to you guys. I took the panel off of it just a little while ago to reseat my RAM, and when I found it, one of them was loose.  :o So all it took was sticking it back in and I'm up and running fine!
    So thanks you guys, saved me a good deal of money taking it in, even if it was a simple fix, no clue how much people charge you up the rear.  :P

      Haha.... Unfortunately, its turned into one of those, I spoke too soon moments. Now it wont even turn on the screen and get as far as it used to in the bootup.... *sighs* I'm afraid I might have to just take it in, as much as I really dont wanna have to pay for them to fix it.

      Will it run with the loose ram module you found removed?

        Just got my hands on a dif computer, heh.... nope, it wont run with that RAM loose, I'm just about ready to take it in.. It used to at least turn the screen on and start to boot up, now the screen doesnt even turn on before it restarts.

          Ok, since I cant quite afford to take it in yet... stupid bills... is there anything else it can be that I can probably look into? I have a feeling its ram isnt the only possibility here...
