Hello, everyone. I ahve a Toshiba Sattelite M115 - S3094 nad i am having problems turning on. I have just formatted it a few weeks ago (about 3 weeks now). And about 2weeks ago i started experiencing this problem.
When i press the power button, it boots to the Windows XP (black) Screen dat shows d intel logo and goes off. I have to power it up again, just for it to go off once it gets to taht stage. Does not even boot in safe mode. Only once or twice can i get it to come up fully in 24 hrs. Most annoying is when it goes off when i am in the middle of something. System fan is working fine, RAM seems ok. I however suspect my OS is currupt. I have a file folder saved from an infected system i was helping a friend fix.
Please, if anyone has a clue as to what i can do, please help.
