Post: HP laptop won't boot AT ALL

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So, my mother's got a laptop which is a bit old, but was working perfectly fine then one day it just stopped working, I'm not sure what caused this cause I wasn't there or anything. But it won't boot from the HDD, USB, nor from a DVD, I haven't tried anything else.
This is a HP OmniBook 2000 Notebook PC, if you need any more information, please let me know. Thanks.

it happened to me with an hp pavilion from 2009, take off the battery, hold the power button for 30 seconds, take out the ram, take out the harddrive and booted up. but don't do it on a carpet or something insane like that, you don't want to fry your ram or mobo. Smile hope it helps
