    Windows Vista Laptop not starting up.

    I am working on a HP Pavilion TX 1120us for a friend. He gave it to me and said that it has been acting up for a while and now won't start at all. It turns on and the fans start but there is no attempt at booting. Could this be the CMOS battery or something more dire?

    Windows 7 Asus P5L VM 1394, should CPU fan blow or suck?

    Please, I recently discarded my CPU fan (an Intel E18764) in favour of an Akasa one. My new fan seems to suck air in through the side panel, whereas I am sure the old one used to blow it out. I have an Antec Minuet low profile case. Thanks! :-)
