I have an Elitebook 2740p which refuses to boot. Depending on battery and charger state I see the following behavior (turquoise and amber are the official names for the two colors that the laptop's little lights can turn):
Not plugged in: It just stays dead. No lights, nothing.
Plugged in: The battery light (the middle one of the three LEDs) flashes, alternating amber (very short) and turquoise (a little longer).
Plugged in, battery removed: The battery light flashes turquoise (perhaps once a second).
In any case, there is no reaction when I press the power button.
What does this mean?
