I know that the message above is only because i had the power removed from the laptop for a few days so this is not an issue. The problem is that when i try to click "OK" to confirm this message, my touchpad or keyboard does not respond.

I re-verified the 2 ZIF connections underneath the keyboard. I re-inserted them just to be sure, but this did not help.

Has anyone seen this problem? Please help?

Update: I resolved the Keyboard/Touchpad issue. Connector was not seated properly. However, I still have the boot problem with the laptop. Can anyone suggest another fix for this. I'm ready to trash this laptop if I cannot get help for a fix.
