Hey all, thought I'd throw this one out there to see if anyone is interested. It's just sitting in a corner right now.
Compaq Presario 700 Laptop: An old college laptop; it's used, but in good shape. The laptop does have some kind of hardware problem where the batteries will not charge.
I bought a new charger and new battery, but still no battery charging. I spoke with a computer tech and he said it might be a problem with the connection on the motherboard; replacement motherboards can be had on E-Bay for $50-$100. I have not taken it in for a diagnostic, don't have the money to spend on it, so I can't confirm that the problem is indeed with the motherboard. It might be something simpler/easier to fix.
The laptop runs fine from a wall outlet and operates normally. If the power cord is bumped out of place, it will shut off (no power in the batteries).
Stats: DVD/CD-RW drive, 1.3Ghz Athlon processor, 256MB of RAM, 15 inch screen, 20 GB hard drive.
I've tried selling it on E-Bay three times now, but the winning bid ends up being scam artists from Nigeria. It's turned into a frustrating mess.
Thought I'd put on this thread to see if anyone is interested! Pics available! Includes a new wall outlet adapter and two batteries, one new.
