take out the battery and hold down the power button until you hear a beep sound. but the battery back in and start it up.

@MrFrankie68 Your welcome and wow not bad!

[MrFrankie68]

thanx,

oh yeah my c640 is my favorite lappie

the thing with me is :

i love to buy faulty and incomplete lappies from ebay

under 15 euro, and fixing it. (or not sometimes)

last week, a working toshiba sp6100 for 11 euro!

@MrFrankie68 Oh I see, so if it's running with that chip then that's good but you should consider getting a newer laptop, it's slow, I have that Latitude C series like you have and I use it once and awhile when I want to use WindowsXP on it since I don't feel like partitioning my hard-drive on my new laptop just to install XP under it. But if it does what you need it to do then that's good. :)

see my comment on post#36

i baught a c640 base+mboard with

the same shut off problem desoldered the maxim chip from a screweed

ed D600..the chip is now on the c640 board

and he is running for 24 hrs with no probs

[MrFrankie68]

i think it's a transistor problem

for the latirude c640/c610 you have tp replace a

voltage chip located at U45 underneath the board

i fiexed several dell c640 's with replacing this very

small chip:

the chip is :

maxim6326

i made my c640 a alive again by resoldering the max-chip from a d600 and

soldered it on my c640..

fan cleaning is no use..you need to replace this chip

your hard drive is dead.
