I can hear them "grinding" slightly (for just a second) in the laptop startup. Does that mean castastrophic failure on my e-horizon?

Any abnormal noise from the hard drive is a sure fire sign of impending doom.

I have a portable hard drive. I am under the impression I can stream that saved data and files to a new laptop to get back in business?

Yes, copy everything important over to the portable drive ASAP.

By the way, I would not turn the computer off or reboot it before you get your files copied over.  It might not come back up.

The bearings grinding laptop hung in there until a couple weeks ago. But the problem is maybe something to do with powering up, instead. I get power light and battery charge light flickers but blank (black) screen. The icon that shows your PC is locked lights up-- so with my limited knowledge I ruled out HD crash. I think it needs a jump start.

I unplugged, removed battery, took out memory card, and then hard drive. Then I replaced in reverse order. But that is all, ---any suggestions?

A few days ago I gave the "3 kids in college now" and "we'll have to get used to last years fashions" and "hand-me-down stuff will have to make do" speech. I have a desk top and 2 notebooks on my desk for work. The problem laptop was/is my personal toy. I will have something nice before football season, but in the mean time, I need to feign frugality.  I've painted myself in a corner, but still think my problem is something electical. I know the battery is cooked. It would not take a charge before things went all to hell, --but I hate to buy a new battery just to test it in the process of elimination.

Three in college. I feel for you. I have one in college and a senior in high school. Cars, insurance, prom/formal dresses (2 girls), etc is killing me. Not to mention college costs.

I know this isn't computer related, but seeing you guys talk about college-age kids takes me back a little. I supposed for sometime that I was among the older guys on here (at 36), but it looks like I must be one of the young'uns. Can I help any of you old dudes with your walkers or anything?  Tongue Tongue Tongue Tongue Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  Just kidding, of course.
