Hi,

If you go to the notebook tab above, you can find  user and service manual. The Forum is so you can describe the fault to get ideas on what is wrong. What are the faults ?

Hi

I realise that but the user guide doesnt seem to open on a non dell pc even with the dell viewer . So it seems i can only view the user guide if the laptop is already fixed ?

Tomintx thanks...just what I had been trying to find...Cheers.

Now to the next problem...

When I bought the laptop I was told that the previous owner couldnt get it to start up after fitting the wrong type of memory in error. When I first tried to boot it I got Power light + HD light + Num lock light all flashing for about 8 secs then it turned off. Followed advice in other posts and eventually got to the point that I now have it striped to the mother board and when I hit the on button I get  Power light + HD light constant but now also Num lock + Caps lock + Scroll lock all light up constand for 5 secs or so then turns off. At no point did I get any fan or other noises or beeps...I have seen a comment here which stated that a C610 wouldnt post without memory installed, could it be I have a bad memory card ?......Any suggestions

No problem....got the memory and it made no difference ...but if i repace the keybord I can occasionally get the lights to stay on and the fans run...but thats all.

Cheers

Steve.

Hi,

The memory is 133meg. Make sure it is pushed into the socket correctly. I have seen many users that dont push it in. It doesnt matter which socket you put it in. Have you tried an external screen ? Without memory fitted, there will be no post, no messages then a power down.
