yeah, your battery is weak... it has enough juice to make it look like you have power, but when the starter starts to draw power the battery can't handle it and voltage drops to almost nuthin.

you'll need a jump, or a new battery or something.

Your right, just needed a charge, it works fine now. I realized that my alarm LED was still blinking but it was just VERY faint.
