Hello everyone, I've searched on this forum for this problem but no fixes worked for me so far.
I was doing a maintenance to my sister's laptop like I do every 6-12 months, but this time after putting everything back together the pc stars for a split second then turns off, turns back on and boots normally, I can reboot no problem but after turning off and turning back on it just keeps getting into on and off loop, If I remove the ram(have tried other working rams) and put it back on it will do the same turns on for a second then off and back on booting normally.
I've tried clearing cmos, changing the cmos battery for a known working one, turning on with just ram installed, no keyboard, no mousepad or anything else, what else can i try? or is it just a faulty motherboard?
What doesn't make sense to me is how it can boot normally after reseating ram and only that?
The laptop is an old HP 1000.
