    Dell D620 not booting, intermittent

    I have a Dell D620 that doesn't always turn on. When you press the power button the numlock, capslock, scroll lock, power light and wifi light come on for about 3 secs then go off. Then without moving anything, it will turn on ok. It does this if either powered on mains, or battery only. I have tried the reset trick, and have also re-seated memory, hard drive etc. Does anyone have any ideas?? I have seen another thread on here about powering on without the keyboard, but I can't make the picture out. Does anyone have the schematics for this board to bypass power button?

    I have found 2 pads near the keyboard connector p/sw that were covered in glue, i have removed the glue, and shorted these out, and it still does the same, only flashing numlock, capslock, scroll lock, power light for a few seconds. I know when it's going to boot correctly, because when the lights come on, the HDD light will illuminate at the same time

      Just wash your mother board in a very good way with Thinner or Petrol especially the CPU Processor's Socket. Your laptop will be fine. . . . .

        Dell Latitude 5590 i5-8350U LA-F411P kernel panic when booting from USB
        by Daniel Kubica
        I got a bare Dell Lattitude 5590 with missing battery, RAM, RTC battery and Storage, I wanted to put some components in it and use it as my home laptop. After adding a FRU 2GB DDR4 2400 SoDIMM RamaxelRAMI've tried booting Linux Mint from USB, I got an error while trying to boot it. I tried reseating the stick, different slot, didn't help.
        I tried to boot Windows 10 installer, as that was the stock system my model came with, got a BSOD as soon as the installer started booting, different code every time. I've tried switching to AHCI mode, I've tried linux in legacy mode, I've tried compatibility...

        Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
        by Bowline
        My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

        Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

        My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
        The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
        I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

        Looking for Dell Latitude 5520 / 5530 / 5540 RJ45 network connector replacement
        by diamon
        I have a Dell Latitude 5530 with a damaged RJ45 network connector. See the attached pictures.

        Have already searched on Farnell / Aliexpress / Ebay and had contact with several suppliers on Aliexpress and Ebay, but they cannot deliver this connector.
        Is there someone inside the EU, who has these connector(s) or perhaps defective motherboard(s) for these laptop models I have mentioned in the topic title.

        Dell 5410 greyed out BT
        by OntarioTL
        Well I've learned something new today. Of all the Dell laptops I've come across I have never seen bluetooth greyed out, and only to learn this is during the build from Dell factory. I've tried to pull the original BIOS and fix with another dell with the same issue on the forums, however the original was not recovered from the forum upgrade so I cannot do a comparison to attempt the fix on my own.

        If someone could help me out with this unit and I'll try the next one as so far I have 2 on my desk with this issue. Thanks in advance!
