353299 2005-05-08 11:50:00 I aquired this laptop...

It's quite nice and I'm guessing bout a 200 or 300Mhz processor, however whenever i power it on, it hits the bios screen, doesn't even get to the POST, jus flashes some text (something like AMIbios copyright blah blah) and then turns off... or turns the screen off.

Anyone know wat the problem could be?

cheers
