    You don’t see a problem with the reported voltages?? There should be no more than a 5% fluctuation. The better the PSU, the less the fluctuations. According to the following review, the VP350P has “tight voltage regulation on +12V and below 3% for the minor rails”. But the numbers you posted are no where near that:

    +3.3v : 2.72v = 17.6% undervolted
    +5v : 4.41v = 11.8% undervolted
    +12v : 10.88v = 9.3% undervolted

    http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/…

    And the reported CPU voltages are WAY over what they should be, at least in SpeedFan. The CPUZ readings seem to be in the ballpark. I don’t know if it’s just a software glitch or what? The CPU voltage is supposed to fluctuate based on load but it should be between 0.90v & 1.425v. Here’s the breakdown:

    Boost States:
    #1: 4100 MHz, 1.425V
    #2: 3800 MHz, 1.4125V
    Low Power States:
    #1: 3000 MHz, 1.225V
    #2: 2500 MHz, 1.125V
    #3: 2000 MHz, 1.025V
    #4: 1400 MHz, 0.9V

    Well, the drive is mounted in an enclosure.

    But, the bare drive itself has a ribbon cable connected to it….the other end of the ribbon cable connects to some type of circuity within the enclosure.

    The external connectors (those old wide SCSI things that look kinda like a parallel printer connector) connect to this circuitry through the enclosure wall.

    In other words…within the case, there is some circuitry (other than just the power unit…that sits between the the external connectors and the drive itself.

    To look at the bare drive…it looks JUST LIKE an IDE ATA hard drive…..Except, it has a 2 rows of 25 pins (not 19 or 20).

    The drive model: DPES-31080 (IBM) and P/N: 85g3623

    Hey, and the other folks…thanks for those links.

    Google is pretty cool…..however, I did try multiple searches for the needed adapter before posting here…nothing came up (that I could find).

    Those results produced by the provided links include adapters which do not connect to this BARE drive (as described).

    It was nice for you to provide them, nonetheless.

    Have you tried holding the Power Off button down for at least 5 seconds?

    We really need the model number (probably underneath) but here’s a general Toshiba guide about removing battery:
    http://www.ehow.com/how_6750724_rem…

    Best of all is to Power Off (if possible), then disconnect from power and remove battery. If you then hold the Power Off button down for at least 20 second it will discharge the motherboard capacitors. This can sometimes “unstick” computers.

    Always pop back and let us know the outcome – thanks

  10. It's trying to boot off the network, which means either the hard disk is not the first in the boot priority or it is corrupted or broken.Check the BIOS settings to see 1. if the hard disk is being recognized and 2. if it is the first device in the boot order.
