Evo N1015v Startup Problem

[jon_92]

Hi not sure if this right forum for this type of problem, but I am in serious need of a solution. My Compaq Evo N1015v is not starting up, the battery light flashes 15 times then nothing. The system was working fine as a duel boot between 98 and XP when 98 needed the shutdown patch installed, after that this is when it would not boot at all. Would appreciate any help or where I should look to find it, thanks Jon

Wrong forum - But:-

Go into bios and set to boot from cd - then try with the windoze cd in drive.

Hi thanks the problem seemed to have been sorted by removing the main battery and the CMOS battery the second time John
