A friend of mine has a Dell 5150 laptop which seems to be having a power issue.

Touching the bottom left corner seems to restart the laptop quite a bit, however, upon reboot, it just keeps rebooting, never making it to windows...

I fixed a friends Dell 8200 which had a loose battery charger board, reseating fixed, however her laptop would lose power completely and wouldnt restart before the fix, unlike the 5150 im researching now.

Dell has already replaced the mobo on the 5150, yet its still doing it...

Any ideas?
