Tell me why I should keep the RAM memory sticks? Do they hold information?

That's what we are preparing to do with the ones we have here. Meanwhile, you can use the Laptop's Hard Drive as an External, if you care to do so with the new Computer you have purchased, then sell the rest on e-Bay. Have a look on e-Bay for that model and condition in order to set your selling price.

I don't have any precioius documents on the hard drive, although I'd like to destroy it so no one can get anything I might not want seen by prying eyes. Now do I just take a hammer and smash the hard drive? BTW, I already bought a new computer at what I think is a reasonable price at Office Depot and this time yes, I'm learning my lesson, I got a service contract.

Do a Search for your issue in any Search Engine and you'll see. My friend and I, we both work on client's PC's and Laptops and we have a few Compaq's laying around that have the same issue. Furthermore, it is the Motherboard and it is a known issue! So, snatch out the Hard Drive and retrieve your Documents, Music and Photos because to replace the Motherboard along with the Service Fee you can get a nice Laptop outside of that model.

The screen is black. It's a Compaq Presario CQ61. I was working on it, and boom! the screen went black suddenly. I pressed the power button and the LED lights flashed 3X and then stopped flashing. Each time I pressed the power on button, the LED lights flashed 3X. Then nothing. I took out the battery and tried using a brand new adaptor with it, again, the lights blinked 3X, then nothing. Black screen. Then I tried the power button without the battery, and absolutely nothing, no LED lights flashed at all. Thoughts anyone?
