Help, T23 went into standby and never came out

#1 Post by atunnell » Thu Nov 03, 2005 11:51 am

I have a T23 that has been put into standby and not refuses to come out. removing power and battery do not seem to help. Any ideas? Need a new motherrboard or something? Thanks

What indicators are still lit? I assume that once you unplug the machine and pull the battery they all go out. What happens then when you plug it back in and push the power button?

if you can, remove the CMOS battery and pray a little :roll:

Here is something wacky to try. I seen a couple of people say this works. Read the tip by kchung in this thread.
