asked on Laptop won't start
Hi Experts
I have a 17" Toshiba Laptop Satellite Pro L670-035 and was doing a factory restore.
I inserted CD 2 of 3 and left. When I returned the laptop was off. When I press the power button the power LED goes on and immediately off.
What could it be? What can I try? How can I troubleshoot?

After you try the steps in the first post above, check the battery as it should not have shut down as you described.

The above steps worked. What does that mean?

I am not sure what it means because we don't know why it shut down. What was the state of the battery when you got it going.

The battery should have been at least 80% if not 100%
Could it be that the battery was empty and then charged after your attempts?
I have seen this on laptops with drained battery.
On PCs such behavior could be seen if BIOS is not working properly.

Thanks. I am glad you go your laptop going (good post above by Lockdown).
You might never know why it happened. Computers can be temperamental :) Fix the problem and keep moving forward......
