FAQ's:
Q: Does this video apply to my issues?
A: This video is for computers with no signs of life that appear 'dead'. It will also help if you see minimal signs of life such as lights only or some hard drive / fan sounds but they stop right a way. If you are able to see anything on the screen at any point or if the hard drive / fan sound remain on, your issue could be something else. Leave me a message with your exact symptoms and I can direct you to the correct video :)
Q: I have tried all the steps seen here without identifying the issue :(
A: If, after trying all these steps multiple times, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; • How To Test your Lapto... & • How to Fix Test Your H... . You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.
Q: The computer will only turn on when the charger is plugged in.
A: If your computer will only turn on when the charger is plugged in after all these steps, then I would next try to replace the battery as its most likely bad. Let me know if you would like assistance finding a compatible battery replacement :)

Discharging internal voltages with the battery removed and charged disconnected did the trick. It would have taken me a while to think of doing that on my own. Thanks!

Awesome video. Ive done all the troubleshooting I can but my computer still won't turn on. I have a MSI gt62vr 6re laptop with a 1070m. It worked two weeks ago, but now when I try and power it on, it just shows the light on the power button and nothing else. After roughly 20 to 30 seconds it turns back off. I've tried the whole static dissipation with and without the charger and battery, I've disconnected all external devices, I've inspected the board shy of taking it all out, and ive even connected it to an external monitor to see if there is any visuals. Not showing much signs of life besides the power button lighting up. It indicates that it is charging. Please help

If you have to wiggle the computer for the display to stay on, I would first go into the computer and unplug the LCD cable at both ends. Then plug it back in and make sure its secure.

You can see those two videos here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6iYprl5zsrJd3k.html & kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ftaRldmjs8fTlIk.html. You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement. 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

I have a elite book 8440p it is an older laptop but has worked great with no problems until today. I went through the basic steps of removing the battery, adapter, etc and it will not power on. I did have an older compaq that would not power on unless the battery was operational while others will function just off the adapter no battery needed. I ordered a new one online and really hope this fixes the issue. Do you think that it could simply be a bad battery? Btw I like the video, it is very informative.

Hi! Tried all of your suggestions to my Toshiba Satellite L840: Static discharge (with and without the battery and charger several times), RAM check as well as the CMOS battery reset. But still, the unit does not start. Pressing the power button lights up the indicator but then turns off after 10 seconds. No other sign of life either e.g. fan noise, etc. Any thoughts on this?

If, after trying all these steps multiple times, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6iYprl5zsrJd3k.html & kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ftaRldmjs8fTlIk.html. You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.

Laptop is a Mecer Wizard Z140C, same symptoms: charger light comes on but laptop does not start. I have tried power button hold for >1 minute with charger connected and with charger disconnected. battery is built-in seems not easy to remove, is it stuck in or screwed in?

If ram was bad you would most likely be able to tell visually right? Like a blown spot on a prong etc?

@PC_Monkey Ай бұрын

No. Sometimes components go bad without any visible signs outside

Hey! I just found your channel and hopefully you can point me in the right direction. My ASUS windows 11 pc was working fine last night, but this morning I can't get the screen to come on at all. I can hear the fan running, no LEDs on the keyboard, keyboard backlight not on. I've rebooted multiple times without success. I do see power LED and another LED on the side.

1. For a computer that turns on but the display does not work, try this video first; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m5-ZrJZhr5aUXZ8.html. Let me know how that goes :) 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

@@PC_Monkey Thank you so much for your reply! After doing some checking, I found that my laptop is still under warranty for just 7 more days! Since I live in Japan, I contacted the manufacturer here and they are sending someone to pick it up from my house tomorrow and will return it to my door under warranty. Japan has AMAZING customer service.

GREAT !!! Warranty repair is always better than DIY :):):)@@DiscoveringJapan1
