Reviving A Dead Thinkpad Laptop

Here’s follow up on my previous post dealing with an intermittent IBM Lenovo R52 laptop.

In that post, I outlined how I had possibly found a solution to my laptop’s unreliable operation.

Unplugging the laptop; pressing the power button 10 times at 1 second intervals; holding it down for 30 seconds… Seemed arcane, but it worked.

At least temporarily.
