My friend gave me his lap top, said it worked, it just needed a HDD cuz he took his out. It then sat for 3 years because I forgot about it. Son needs a lap top now so I buy an HDD, plug it into wall assuming battery is shot and I get nothing. The power pack lights up, but computer is dead. No bios, no fans, no lights.
What could have happened in the 3 years it sat? It wasn't abused in any way... Just sat on a shelf. Is it possible that the battery is so dead that it isn't allowing power to complete any circuit? Will these things run with no battery pack installed and plugged into wall?
