28115 2001-12-20 07:54:00 Hi,

I can't turn my compaq armada 1530 DM on - it has a slide switch, and a purple power button (both are power buttons) when i try them all that happens is the lights for HDD activty, num, caps and scroll lock come on - but it doesn't actually boot - i have had it boot up - but i don't know what i did to make it boot

Thanks for any help!

28116 2001-12-20 08:52:00 Does the monitor come on? Can you see things on the screen? If not, check the cables (power and video) are connected. If it does - are you getting messages on the screen? At what point does it hang? Guest (0)
28117 2001-12-21 00:33:00 I have got it to turn on properly now, my new problem is that win98 won't recognise the modem, or any drivers that i put in (even from the compaq website) - any ideas?

Thanks,

Martin
