My uncle just gave me his sister's laptop to fix because she apparently spilled somethign on it and he wants to know if it can be saved. she said that it wouldnt' power up at all. well i plugged it in and sure enough it wouldn't come up. however, when i took the power cable out of it, the laptop powered up fine but right after the windows xp boot screen it shut off before the user logon screen. the batter indicator light is on so i'm guessing that it doens't have enough power to reach full boot or something. but the weird thing is that if i plug the power cable into the laptop while it's trying to boot it will shut off. can anyone tell me what is going on, i was thinking a bad battery or something but i'm a PC tech not a laptop lol. help is much appreciated.
