    Toshiba A300 weird problem!

    Strange fault with this unit!

    Condition: no ram.

    The unit will power on with no ram, then after 15-20 seconds turn off, reboot and continue this loop.

    Condition: Ram in slot 1.

    In this slot, the unit will stay on with the green solid light, however it doesn't boot. Harddrive spins up but no display.

    Condition: Ram in slot 2.

    With ram only in this slot, the unit will turn on, then the power LED will flash in the following sequence:

    White - Orange Orange - White - Orange Orange - Off.

    I found a service manual but couldn't find any reference to what the error code meant. Any ideas?

    Tried swapping CPU's, ram, no luck. I have another A300 here so I'm going to test the GPU, although I'm certain that's not at fault.
