You just might try pulling the memory, (under they keyboard) and try
booting. I have seen on both the 100 and the 110, where the additional
memory, seems to work itself loose, and the Libby will fail to boot. Pulling
the memory and reinserting it, seems to fix this, for me.
Hope it is this simple!

Subject: Hardware failure on 110CT
Hi all,
I just joined this list, but I already have a rather major problem
with my Libretto 110CT: Within two weeks of buying it, it developped a
hardware failure. Sometimes it will start up normally, in other cases
only the harddrive will start up, while the display stays black and
there is no reaction to any key or even the power button. It does
react to the reset button, though that will only get to the same point
again.
The fact, that I can get it to boot up by slightly tapping on the case
points to some kind of loose contact. This was confirmed yesterday,
when the machine crashed when I tried to move the display.
The problems occurr on battery as well as on mains and are independend
of any PCMCIA cards. They also happen with or without docking station.
I have access to SMD soldering equipment and I have an electronics
background, so I'm not afraid to try and fix this (especially, as I a)
like this machine and b) spare-parts are so expensive). However, if
anybody on the list has any experiences with such an endeavour, I'd
really appreciate some hints.
Regards,
Thomas
