Laptop not switching on

1) How are you powering your laptop?
You did not explain.
Is it plugged into an AC outlet, or is it on battery power.

If AC, is it running through a "surge protector" or power strip?
Is everything else connected to that power strip working?

If battery powered, have you charged the battery for a long time through a reliable source, such as an AC battery charger?

Has the laptop had a spill, been dropped, a hard drive exchange, etc?

I power on my lenovo g55o, the power light come on, the battery charging light and the hard drive blinks for a couple seconds and goes off, but the monitor never lights up

You can try switching off computer, unplug the ac adapter, then the battery. When all power source are removed, hold the power button. Then put the battery back on then try switching the laptop back on.

Hello, i broke the screen on my laptop wanting to switch it to my desktop monitor but for some reason it wont switch over. unfortunately since i cant see the screen i cant get into my startup menu any...

First, disconnect the laptop from the ac adapter and take off the battery and the memory. Press the reset button on your laptop. Connect your ac adapter only and press the power button two or three time while everything else is disconnected. Then, re-install your memory and your battery. Connect the ac adapter to the laptop and to your power source. Now turn on your laptop and see if you get a display on your laptop screen. If you do, then you have reset everything and you are back to where you started. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

My power source keeps switching from ac adapter to battery. Please help.

Do you happen to have a loose power adapter? If it switches back and forth It could be a faulty power adapter.

It has been screwy since day 1 - power source issues, sometimes will turn on with AC & no battery. Other times.. I don't know if it's a button issue or power. Shouldn't you be able to turn this...

Most likely your power I/O board *(cant remember the real name) that connects to your motherboard (where you plug your ac adapter into) has gone bad or has a loose connection.

How to switch to battery power source on a compaq nx7010

If you have the AC adapter plugged into the portable, it will run on AC power while recharging the battery. Once you remove the AC adapter, it will go onto battery power.

If once you remove the AC adapter the computer dies, with a battery installed, then your battery is weak/dead or there is a connection problem, and the battery is not charging. But, I doubt this is the case, since it thinks the battery is at 80%. The system does not know if the battery is holding a charge.

You power settings are only timers, which reduce power consumption when idle.

Power source not charcing battery

Its not the battery, its AC power source providing your problem.
Check if AC connector goes in as far as it should on your laptop, check so you dont have a weak link on the cables on the AC. My guess is that the power sorce or the cables on is defect someway.

Good luck!
