I doubt you'll see a mini laptop with 4gb of ram. Their processors are not built for 64bit operations which is the only way you can make full use of 4gb. Stick with getting decent battery life and at most 3gb of ram.

At 40k you have to be either looking at getting it from abroad or looking at fairly used. If you have someone coming from the US you can ask them to help you. Or else look for a fairly used Acer One or Lenovo mini, they seem to be solid buys.

Thanks for the response. No, I've not checked the memory. I guess I will have to loose the screw at the back to do that but I'm not too sure I can do that on my own.

Thanks for your suggestion. I will sure go with your suggestion but I really will like to be sure of the exact problem and how much it will cost me. I only hope it's not the screen or the hard drive because it got really hot yesterday before the screen went bad. I was trying to update the BIOS in order to solve the wireless module problem when this happened

You didn't state that earlier. BIOS update is a no go area if yoy don't know your way around it.It is even advised not to be touched.

You probably have a corrupt bios. How many times is the caps lock flashing? what is the model?

Apologies for not stating that. I thought the BIOS update is normal in order to correct the error 702 I have on the laptop.
The caps lock flashes like 3 or 4 times(not so sure) before it goes off. It's HP Probook 4525s.
Thanks once again.
