It Isnt battery
Took out HD and put back in and it is spinning so isnt the HD
So it is Pointing toward motherboard I think ...
i had the same problem. i started tearing it apart to rape it, and i though, "why dont i try to fix it" and i tried and i did.
it could be a few things.
1. the mother board (just get a new computer if this is the problem)
2. plug in the battery charger and take the battery out. when the charger is plugged in, wiggle it with some force and it the charging light flickers, you have to sotter the power jack again. (that means taking the mother board out and EVERYTHING ELSE) its what i did.
3. a loose chip. i think its you graphics card or something but it could over heated and moved out of place. get it out and use a hair drier to reheat it and move it back into place. be careful when doing this, too much heat and its ruined, not enough and it wont move.
good luck!:black:
