    I've just swapped the screens on two HP omnibook 6000's and now they are both shutting down as soon as i start up?

    They were both running ok about an hour or two ago and now they are both doing it?

    One of them is/was stone cold when i booted it and it still done it, so i don't *think* heat is an issue.


    What is my tired brain not thinking of?



    help!


    Q

    EDIT: when i say "shutting down" they are just going off, no attempt to close down properly.

    I hate to tripple post but i deserve to be publicly shamed for my utter stupidity!


    The "dodgy power cord" was not really dodgy it wasn't even plugged in! I seriously need some sleep man, i was about 5 mins away from ordering a new one :(



    If anyone wnats to volounteer, ill PM you my address and you can come round and slap the snot out of me, i do really think i deserve it.



    *hangs head in utter shame*
