8600 Power Up Problems

Seems as if this problem is a recurring one. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem, if so, what did they do.

When pushing the power button to power up the laptop, it seem as if the laptop is turning on, but rather, all three lights light up, the speakers click as if they were turning on, but then the laptop turns off again. I've tried this a couple of times with the laptop plugged in and not plugged it, seems when it isn't, it doesnt happen as much.

After pushing the power button a number of times, and getting the same problem, the laptop will turn on. Sometimes it takes about ten times of pushing the power button for the laptop to turn on. Wondering if its something with the power button, ACPI or what..

Other then that, the laptop is awesome!

The computer is running the latest BIOs A11. Laptop is old and has never been dropped etc...

Any help or suggestions is appreciated.

Thank you,

Rich L.
