ThinkPad T60 wont boot

#1 Post by doctaphill » Wed Mar 17, 2010 11:51 am

Hi,



Just the other day I went to take my computer out of sleep mode but upon doing so it crashed. When I tried to boot it back up I got this strange set of beeps and just a blank screen. Tried to reboot again and no luck. One thing that I have noticed is that after the beeps the "z: symbol with the circle around it stays on, but I really dont know what it means. Here is a youtube video of me trying to boot it up

I have heard that it might be a battery or power supply issue but I really dont have any way of testing it out without buying one. Any suggestions?

1-3-4-3 Beep Code Pattern
A 1-3-1-1 beep code pattern indicates some kind of issue with the memory. Replacing the RAM is the usual recommendation for solving this problem.
