I need some help guys! Ok, so my Dell Inspiron 1521 was working just fine yesterday. Last nite I put it into hibernation mode like I always do when I'm done using it. This morning when I went to power up, the fans started like it was loading, but the screen stayed black. I pushed the power button to turn it off to try again, but it did the same thing, where it sounded like it was going to go on, but the screen stayed black. I previously was using a battery that would only power the computer unless the AC was plugged in, and so I took that battery out, and put in a brand new one that I had, but it's still doing the same thing. After having the new battery charge for some time, I pushed the power button to try to turn it on again, and the fans powered up and quieted, the CD drive spun to warm up like normal- even flashing it's green light-, the power light is blue, and kind of dim, and the screen remains black. IS my laptop indeed stuck in hibernation mode, and if so, how the heck do I get it out? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, someone help me with this!!! MUCH thanks in advance!
