Nothing at all. I cannot get anything from it. Initially I thought it was unplugged and the power was drained. I double checked the cords, then reseated the battery. Still nothing. Saw the one dim wifi light after that. Has to be a power issue, or the motherboard or bios are gone. Guess I am computer shopping.
