does not turn on then go to Step 4.

Operate the computer on battery power for five minutes. If you find
that the battery pack has at least five minutes of operating time,
continue operating until the battery pack is fully discharged. However,

pack is being charged. However, if

Memory media
The computer is equipped with a memory media slot that can
accommodate some kinds of memory media with various memory
capacities so that you can easily transfer data from devices, such as digital
cameras and Personal Digital Assistants.
Keep foreign objects out of the memory media slot. Never allow metal
objects, such as screws, staples and paper clips, to enter the computer or
Keyboard. Foreign metal objects can create a short circuit, which can
cause computer damage and fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.
