Explanation welcome
When I switched on my laptop this morning the screen remained resolutely black. The machine was working as I could hear the prompt for my password and when I entered it it loaded up and eventually connected to the internet via the dongle. The only thing was I couldn't see anything except a black screen, and no arrow. I powered down and tried a few times with no success. The last time I noticed that what I presume to be the battery light on the PC (looks like a lightning flash) was glowing solid; it is never normally on. Without knowing what I was doing I removed the battery and lo and behold it is working normally. Any idea what has caused this?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The battery is two years old, same as the computer. I always run it from the mains, not the battery. What I can't understand is why, if the battery is the problem, it affected the screen display but not the general running of the computer. I am quite happy without a battery, but just curious as to what exactly was going on.
I just said pretty much the same thing on mikes other thread...
