Remove the battery, leave the machine plugged in to the mains. Does the
same thing happen?

Replace the battery. Unplug the machine. What happens?

Reset the Power Manager: turn the computer off, then restart by holding
down the reset key (at the rear) for 10-20 seconds. If this doesn't
restart the machine, try again two or three times.

Any luck?
