It start to boot by appearance of logo (H2 insyde). then suddenly the screen become black (off). Then the logo reappeared again. then the screen off again.logo come....screen off....its continue like a cycle.<br /><br />2. when i press F2 or F12, the black screen with something written on it appear. then it disappears in seconds.I cant even manage to read what written on it. After that the cycle like i mentioned in (1) start to come again.<br /><br />3. I try to format it by inserting XP CD. But nothing happens at all. The cycle (in 1) continue to happen.<br /><br /><span style='color:red'>BEFORE THE PROBLEM :</span><br /><br />1.Actually this problem happen 5 days ago...but i don&#39;t really care about it as I&#39;m busy with my exam. Around 2pm- 3pm that day i ON my laptop.Everything running smoothly as nothing going wrong. I use it as usual.<br /><br />2. 3pm - 4pm : Feeling nothing more to do then, i close my laptop (hibernate it) as usual. Taking some nap.<br /><br />3. 4pm : I ON back my laptop....Then the problem start to happen. I REALLY wondering why this problem happen back then.
