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 Power ... . 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 :)

Big thank-you for creating this video. I had my laptop on, and went outside for a few hours to do some work. When I came back inside, my laptop was off. When I pushed the power button to try to turn it on, nothing happened. I wasn't sure if the battery had an issue or what. By performing the first couple of troubleshooting steps, I determined the power cord was not plugged into the laptop all the way, so the laptop ran the battery down while I was away. Once I had the power cord inserted all the way, I was able to turn it on. Once I put the battery back into the laptop and turned it back on, I could see the battery was at 1% charge. Another video I watched prior to this one, the guy skipped the first couple of troubleshooting steps, and was already opening up the laptop. This saved me from chasing the wrong problem.

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

@PC_Monkey 9 ай бұрын

1. Sounds like your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here? 2. After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Be aware that liquid could damage components even when the computer is off and may have done so before it was dried. If so, there could be multiple boards / components that are damaged which would make troubleshooting difficult.

Hi there! I've got a pretty old HP elitebook. I used to use this laptop often but haven't for about 6 months. Two days ago I went to try to turn it on and the caps lock and power button were flashing with the charging light flashing orange/white. I googled what to do and did a BIOS reset with holding the windows key and b key, pressing power button for 3 seconds, releasing, then still holding the windows/b. I had also taken the battery out and only had the charger in. This worked to get my computer back on. I put battery back in and let it do it's thing. It was running fine and I checked the battery and extra external battery and both charged to 100%. I was done with the laptop for the day and closed it without turning it off. I went to use it the next day (yesterday) and it did the same thing: power button/ caps lock flashing, with charging light flashing orange/white. I tried the same BIOS reset and it didn't work. I eventually gave up. I have now tried everything in this video and still nothing is working. I'd really appreciate the help if there's any help to be given for this laptop. Again, I'm not sure how old it is, the battery says it's from 2015. Thanks!

@garlicjoint4214 3 ай бұрын

Idk what happened, but I put the internal battery back in, but the external battery back on and it wasn't fitting correctly. After getting annoyed with it, I just slammed it in (I know I probably shouldn't have done that, shame on me) I then tried removing the external battery, had to snap off the hooks to lock it in place (again I know I shouldn't have done this) once I snapped the external battery off, the fans started going and the laptop turned on totally fine. I will no longer be using the external battery even though it seems like it charges fine 🤷🏼‍♀️

Are there any signs of life at all when you try to turn it on? Lights? Fan, Motherboard, or Hard Drive sounds? Anything seen on the screen? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

@noeljost-coq7523 Жыл бұрын

My laptop has a fan sound constantly, but black screen on battery or plugged in. I was just using it, closed the monitor , then opened again and this issue presented. What should I try? Has internal battery.

@PC_Monkey Жыл бұрын

1. If the fan is on, perhaps the computer is on. 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?

Hello friend, I have a Lenovo 730 yoga 15". It shut off while charging and it won't turn back on. I did the following steps multiple times. Press start button for 1 min. Remove batter. Installed new battery. Tried with just the charger. This is all new to me and have no idea what I am doing. Appreciate your videos and help. Thank you. Be safe

@PC_Monkey 11 ай бұрын

1. 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. 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

@MissIvyliz 11 ай бұрын

Thank you for your response. I have no experience with repairs at all. This is my 1st attempt. Watching videos and trying these steps so far. Was going to order ram next. You think I should skip that?I so far, I tried the new charger and new battery and nothing. Before it crashed I downloaded a version of office that was emailed to me by a vendor. @@PC_Monkey

@PC_Monkey hey I tried what you did in the video but still my chromebook wont turn on and also I've noticed whenever i charged my chromebook, the mother board would make sound but when I take the charge out, the sound stops so I think there's something worng with my motherboard in my chromebook.

Thank you , I was very stressed , tried all of the above suggestions, and no luck , I have 2 ram sticks and removed and shuffled them around , sure enough one is causing a problem and needs to be replaced . My question is ? , can I run the computer safely with just the one ram in place ?. Please let me know , very much appreciate your work .

@PC_Monkey Жыл бұрын

Yes, you can use the computer with only one stick of RAM :) It just may be a bit slower at times
