Welcome to the Dell Community [NAME]  Have you tried shorting the CMOS reset contacts??? Remove the AC adapter and "Main" battery. Remove the "Base" cover. Look next to the memory clips for gold/copper colored contacts labeled "CMOS1". [IMAGE] Use a small flathead screw driver to short the contacts. Rock the screw driver tip on the contacts a few times just to make sure. Make sure to follow these steps. NOTE: Do not install the "MAIN" battery yet. 1. Turn over the laptop. 2. Open the lid. 3. Hold down the " D " key and "NOW" insert the AC adapter. The laptop should cycle through the display test of Red, Green, Blue, Black and White 2-3 times. Then it should automatically try to boot 2-3 times. Post your results. Best regards and good luck, U2
Hi everyone, I have a dell lattitude E5530 was working but the screen went fuzzy then went black. Now the laptop won't turn off and while it's on it won't boot up.    the power light doesn't show and the battery light keeps flashing both on the front and the left side. On the left side the other 2 lights are a solid white. I've taken the battery out and it's doing the same thing. If i pull battery and power out the laptop and then plug power back in the laptop it doesn't turn on till i press the power button. So the power button isn't being pushed in and i don't think it's a short anywhere.   I tried booting with an external screen plugged in and i still don't see anything. When booting i can hear the fan going but nothing posts so i can't check the bios.    Any help would be appreciated and I'm happy to answer any questions of something that I didn't put into this post.
