Hi there.
Plugged in or not plugged in makes no difference.
Press the power button - indicator light comes on, stays on maybe 20 seconds, goes out. Nothing else appears to happen.
Internet says to try a few things, but they don't work. Also suggests removing the battery then re-installing it, but I'm pretty sure this isn't a replaceable battery and haven't been able to get the back off anyway because I don't have a tiny enough Torx drive to do so.
it's still under warranty, but some work needs to be done in the next few days that requires using the expensive software installed on the laptop. Can't afford to buy another copy to install on an old machine, can't afford to wait weeks for repair process.
Now what?
