G550 Startup Problem

[ Edited ]

Hello...

I currently use the Lenovo G550 running on Windows 7

This laptop is currently less than a year old

 

Problem:

   Upon startup W/O battery/powercord, the system starts up and three lights appear, Power, Battery(Unless removed) and another light that looks like a trashcan (dunno what's called)

After about 3 seconds the light with trash can symbol will turn off and the Lenovo start screen will not appear

This has happened numerous times

When the charger is placed inside the computer makes a rather loud Beep

 

This problem was solveable by removing the battery and placing it back in, not anymore

 

Help?

Re: G550 Startup Problem

the light you're talking about is for harddisk. if it doesn't blink after lenovo start screen, you need harddisk replacement.

warranty will cover it, so you can call lenovo support line and ship it back to service.

but, before that, try this trick: remove the battery and ac power, press power button for 30-40 seconds, replace the battery and check if it works.

Re: G550 Startup Problem

I don't think it's the hard drive (harddisk)
The computer used to run into the problem where the light was off and simply removing the battery (while it's on) and placing it back would fix the problem
Now that does not work

I never asked anyone here for support if the system is under warranty, the manufacturer of the system, but all that I have personally bought from the same supplier, and with all "button is pressed while

Re: G550 Startup Problem

warranty conditions may change by country but if you are talking about the main case, it will void your warranty.

( you can replace hdd or ram )
