Dell adamo 13 Laptop is dead and not powering on

I would verify you are getting the right voltage out of your AC adaptor with a meter. I believe it should be 15vdc. If you are not getting the correct voltage buy a new one off eBay and charge your battery.
If you are getting the right voltage but the unit doesn't power up, remove the battery and check its condition with a meter. If the battery is bad, you may be able to run the laptop with the AC adaptor only.

A problem with my Dell ADAMO 13

is the PC dead?. and screen dead no matter what.? no text ever?
NO dell LOGO? on screen and F12 prompts missing?
is the pC fan inside dead..?
does PC beep
does PC show blink codes with LED lamp anywhere on the PC?
all are clues. evidence that any tech will use to answer why. okay?
ever test it with the battery out?
this PC is now 9 years old.
and both batteries inside will be NO GOOD. (this old and never replaced)
the RTC coin cell will be no good.
and the main battery too, will be end of life, dead , shorted or worse.

if this is all very confusing , get it repaired in PC repair shop.
there are no lack of shops anywhere.

the page in your manual shows:
When the DELL™ logo appears, press <F12> immediately. Select
Diagnostics
from the start menu and press <Enter>.

the service manual on this dell is weak and very POOR.
it says every page, call dell for ever failure even simple failures.
like pop out the RTC coin cell.
THE FAN IS HERE THE RTC IS HERE.
the battery huge is inside too. (dismantlement is necessary)
all the parts key are here, not battery.
the RTC coin is lower left of center.

the bad manual is here.

what good is a service manual lacking instructions on service.?

You will need to change the laptop keyboard, go to www.ebay.com Type: make and model of laptop, and refine search to keyboard. But it would not hurt to attach a external keyboard to be sure.

Adamo xps is frozen after it boots windows so I can't put my password in. Ctr Alt Delete doesn't work either so it seems that my keyboard is not working. What do I do?

on the pc using safe mode(press F8 when starting) you can access through administrator account and then go to control panel>useraccounts>desired account> remove password and so you can remove the password

This could also be a power inverter on your screen.

You have to open the case of the laptop to do this repair.

You could damage the laptop beyond repair if you are not qualified to do this.

I have the same problem, I have Dell Adamo 13 with backlit keyboard, everything was working fine unti i had the technician replace the keyboard and motherboard, the "Q" button wasn't working. Now, i put the 3rd keyboard - same issue everything works except that the keyboard has no backlight. I installed new fresh Win7, than applied new Dell Factory Image to no avail. The only other things before it was working was that the motherboard was replaced and also I have noticed some of the cables from LCD display are kind of damaged. I think the Dell technician couldn't put it together and was forcing the hinges to snap in.

I'm getting new motherboard and LCD kit screen from Dell, if that won't work, I'm running out of ideas......
