from what I understand, no guarantee the Tosh' will boot.


I don't know if it has allready been suggested (or tried), but looking
around I've seen suggestions to;
1. Turn the machine off.
2. Disconnect the power-supply and remove the battery.
3. Press the On button for 60 seconds.
4. Restore power-supply and try to boot.


I believe that's called degaussing (sp?). Tried it and it did nothing.

Please look at the info Linux brought up today - what can all this tell you?
