Sony VAIO does nothing

[willjm3931]

My son knocked his Sony Vaio, Model PCG_7184L off his desk. Now when he turns it on, Vaio comes up and goes away, Several -'s will go done the left side of the screen and that is it. I took about what I could, checked memory and hard drive to make sure they were seated properly. Any guesses on where I should go from here???

Most likely you have internal damage to the laptop now. But I would take the hard drive out and run a scan on it while attached to a different computer. What brand of drive is it? Laptops don't like being dropped.
