I've just been asked to look at my Bulgarian friends (there are language issues) Satellite A210-19D laptop.
On boot:
The hardware powers up when connected to mains power
The CD drive is read in the boot sequence
There is no hard-drive activity
There is no display
The screen setting is not set to external monitor, I've toggled between.
The fan is running
The battery does not hold a charge.
My friend suggested that the hardware was overheating.
Any guidance wrt what the difficulty might be/what I should be considering would be most gratefully received
