Try hitting F10..... and then yes and see if it will boot... failing that boot it again and hit F8 alot... if you get a screen that has safe mode etc.... use the up down arrows to move the cursor to safe mode and see if it will boot.

My D-Link 2750U router is not working from last evening due to the heavy rain, lightning and storm. What should I do?

If you have lost three devices I'm sure you had ALL your computer devices on a UPS/Surge protector? Always connect ALL computer devices to a Power strip, UPS, or even better, unplug or switch off when not in use. A power strip with Surge Protection will help, most have a power switch/ Circut Breaker, to shut down ALL devices connected when not in use.

Laptop power turns on but nothing happens

I strongly suggest getting a new battery for your laptop. The cause of your problem may have been caused my an electrical storm or power surge or simply mishandling of the laptop.

A replacement power battery should cost about $200 if you shop around. Call your manufacturer, you may be covered by the warranty!

I have Toshiba M35X satellite series. The problem is my laptop starts being late after it is turned on. And the other problem is the battery can be charged only up to 52%. After that the laptop will urned...

First, this may be an issue of old battery. The m35 is a rather old model, so it's no wonder if the battery fails to load at all. Second, your laptop may be suffering from the Maxim chip problem. During the time of m35, a lot of other laptops had this same problem with this Maxim chip that caused all kinds of weird problems with both Toshiba and HP models such as the m30, m35, m115, A65, A75 etc, and the HP NC6000, NC7000 and NC9000 series. It's a long story, a long explanation on how to repair the dead Toshiba m35 laptop. Take a look at the post for symptoms and solution, and don't forget to leave a comment if you find it helpful.
