Ok...first time here
My laptop won't boot. It turns on, shows the bios, gets to the point where it would boot, but doesn't. It won't boot from HDD or CD. I tried CD without the HDD in too. Not only that, but i can't access the bios settings either. But, i can get it to show the start screen of a Linux Live USB stick (the try linux, install, memory test e.t.c screen). I can get it to do the memory stick, but the try and install functions just make it hang. The memory test showed that my second ram stick was dead, so i took it out, but it still doesn't work.
Its a Tiny laptop, with an intel pentium M 1.6 GHz processor, an ATI radeon mobility 9600/9700 graphics card (not sure which one, system info when it was working contradicted itself)
Thanks in advance,
McMajik
EDIT: if it helps, my laptop is a tiny powerlite c825
