I have a Gateway Laptop MA7 /MT6707 with a boot problem. When you power up the laptop the cpu fan and hard drive spin up and I get the power light on but that is it, it will not post. On occasion when powering up the fan will speed up and then shut off along with the hard drive.
I have been able to get the laptop to boot by turning it on and off a dozen times or so and it will finally post and boot into Vista, and operates fine. I have run several diagnostic tests and everything checks out?no reported issues.
I have replaced the memory; I have switched memory slots with different combinations of memory, I reapplied thermal past to the CPU thinking it could be a heat issue I am at a loss.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
