I think my battery might be bruised or my computer itself might just need to be fixed all together.
Hi Bell, please don;t panic. Let us try to solve it.
> remove -- and don't replace -- the battery, than connect the charger and turning on the Laptop.

Most likely you have a problem with the battery or electric circut in your laptop. Unfortunatly there is not much you can do, except taking it professional repair service.

Your problem is far more than the battery. Your problem is the power cord. Laptops for the most part will work off the power cord even if the battery is dead or even if the battery is not in the laptop. Your power cord charges your battery and if it is bad it will not charge it. You've been working off your battery even though you might have had the power cord plugged in, but if it's bad and not charging the battery, the battery drains and then you can't get the laptop to power on at all. Go purchase a ac adapter and power cord that is designed for your system. Don't buy one that some of the big box stores sell that has a an interchangeable plug at the end designed to fit just about any laptop. Those will eventually burn *********** board out.
