    3. Tried an external monitor but still screen is blank
    4. wireless button is also glowing
    5. But laptop is not turned on
    6. Also it does not show light despite connecting adapter to power source

    This problem has been occured twice and both time there was rain in the morning. First time laptop started on its own after say 1 hr. But today its not starting at all.

    Try this. Unplug it from all power and then remove the battery for a few minutes, plug it back in and then try again. This has worked for me on more than one laptop.

    Some laptop won't power up after the battery has died even when connected to power (interlocked). Do you have another battery that you can swap out?


    Also try to hard reset it again but this time after removing the battery and disconnecting the power try holding down the power button for a minute or so to make certain that everything is full discharged. Then set it up and try again.

    send it in to be repaired as laptops are harder to upgrade & repair compared to desktops.
