I have tried to boot it 6 or 7 times and I will NOT power it up again. My external backup drive just got here Friday too! I was a day late. :( I have found a few places with flat rates at $700 or so. I will keep looking. Anyone have a Dell 8600? Will you take the hard drive out and jiggle it? I want to know it it rattles. Just for peace of mind. I hope it rattles. If anyone does not have backups, go do it now. THIS SUCKS. I hve Dell complete care, so laptop replacement is free, but not the data.
