    I have a 3000 N100 laptop. Everything works fine before I shut down it. When I try to start the laptop again, I heard the fans running, but it did not start. There is no any beep sound. I check the AC connecting. It is OK. I disconnect the power and tried several times to start it. It did not work. I am frustrate. Anybody can help? Please! Thank you so much!

    Except the light aside by the power button is on (it looks like a "Z" in a circle), all other lights are off. I can hear the fans running. Thanks!

    Finally I found the problem. The RAM was loose. I pluged it out and pluged in tightly. The laptop started! It is different from desktop. If the same problem happend in a desktop, it should give out beep sound.
