Is it completly dead or it turn on but no display ?
if it is completly dead, it could be the motherboard.
but if it turn on and no display. try to reseated memory first.
if you have 2 memory, try to use only 1 memory. used it in every slot to test the memoy slot.
if it is still no display, your motheboard need to be repair.

Gateway M 6843 won't turn on

You may have already done this, but remember many laptops require that you remove the battery for about 30 sec. as
well as disconnect the AC power to reset them.
Always try this when everything appears completely dead.

I hadn't charged my Sony Vaio model PCG-61611L for a couple days. Then when I finally plugged it in to charge, it won't turn on. I even left it plugged in for a few days and still nothing. It has...

Try A Hard Reset

Remove the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord from your Sony Vaio laptop, press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to discharge any residual current inside the laptop.

This clears your RAM and is like a hardware reset.

Replace the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord
and turn your laptop on.

If that does't work try removing ram and reinstall. Sometime this works with these laptops.

My inspiron 6000's power flickers on and off intermittently, switching between A/C & battery power. I've replaced the power cord. Any other ideas?

Try removing batt and use ac adapter alone. Check if laptop works fine also check if LED flickers still.

Try removing ac adapter and use battery alone and check if batt flickers as well.

If flickering only happens when both are connected or vice versa try this first. Update the BIOS for your laptop. Download the BIOS update from http;//support.dell.com

I'm trying to fix a gateway MFATXNIN NMZ 500SE

Sir,
  1. Press and hold the power button down for 10 seconds.
  2. Make sure that the power and hard disk light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are on.
  3. Check the power cable connections:
    • From the electrical outlet to the AC adapter.
    • If applicable, make sure the LED on the AC Adapter lights.
    • From the AC adapter to the notebook.
    • Make sure that the power strip is on.
    • Make sure that the surge protector is on.

  4. Try another electrical outlet.
  5. Disconnect any external devices, like PC cards, digital cameras, or external drives.
  6. Disconnect the notebook from the docking station (if applicable). Remove any power strips and surge protectors. Plug the power cord directly from the notebook into the electrical outlet.
  7. Remove the battery and reinstall the battery. Refer to the documentation that came with the notebook.
  8. Remove any newly installed software or hardware.
  9. Remove any additional memory. Refer to the documentation that came with the notebook for memory removal instructions.
  10. Shut down the computer, and then remove the drives. Refer to the documentation that came with the notebook.
  11. Push the hardware reset (if applicable). Refer to the documentation that came with the notebook.
