Hi,
I have a problem with an Amilo D1840 laptop, where it one day just died. But it is not totally dead, now and them I am able to power it up, but after a minute or two, it has a sudden death, and I am not able to power it up again - no flashing lights or noises. I have tried the following:
* Removed the battery
* Used another power supply
* Removed the memory
* Removed the on-board wi-fi card
* Removed the CPU and applied new thermal paste
Sometimes I am able to power it up immediatly, but it the dies quickly - and stays dead for a long time. After a good while, e.g. 3-5 hours I might be able to power it up again, but then it dies again. I might even be able to boot XP and log in before it happens again.
Ofc, the warrenty has expired. Any help would be appreciated :)
