Possibly, however I don't think that's it. It doesn't really have time to
power back up, it just kinda begins lighting up, then powers off
instantly. However, i'll try changing that and giving another shot when i
get home today, thanks.

Anyone else have an HP Pavilion and wanna give me some hints with anything
weird with them? :) ATi Mobility U1, anyone? :)
