My laptop won't turn on, what should I do?

Answer by  Stratos (37)

If you do not know what happen, you should be careful. First, check the battery. Then, if the battery is ok, you have to check the monitor. No result? Remove the battery, wait five minutes and plug the battery back again. If your laptop is ok, just be careful the next time!

First, you should check your power cable, and make sure it's fully plugged into the computer. Second, make sure that your battery is fully inserted, if that doesn't work, try removing the battery. If it doesn't work with the adaptor or battery, you may need a new laptop.

First check the battery. Make sure it is installed correctly and the contacts are clean. Then make sure it is charged fully. If it still won't turn on even when plugged in you may have some internal issues and should consult a professional.

try again with another power cable attached if you haven't. If that doesn't work, you have a bad power connector. You need it replaced.

Make sure the laptop is plugged in. Try reseating the battery by taking it out and putting it back in. Make sure nothing else is loose. Call tech support.
