Hi,

I used my laptop one night and when I wake up in the morning, I could not turn on the power and nothing is responding.

I have tried to open the battery, but I could not. Three of my friends tried to open the battery as well. The manual (on page 90 - pdf slide #) clearly shows how to open it. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c00700903.pdf The release latch button (#1 in the pic) is alread to the left - doesn't move to the right - but the battery did not disengage from the computer.

Any help?? - I believe that taking out the battery is the natural first step.

Thanks,
