Four things that could cause this. 1- power supply, check it for the proper output with an ohm meter, 2- bad battery, try starting with the supply only, 3- bad memory chip or slot, remove the memory, and try each chip one at a time in each slot, 4- failed power management system on the motherboard. Unfortunately, a failed power management system or chip is common with these, and the motherboard will have to be replaced in order to fix it.

My ibm thinkpad a21m will not turn on and a green light just flashes on it

The green light flashing is actually a diagnostic code, IBM should have what the flashes mean on their web site.

I once worked on the the exact same model and the green light was flashing. The owner bought a new Motherboard off of ebay and I installed it and the computer then worked fine.

I am not saying that it is the motherboard, it could be an issue with battery or the AC adapter as well.

Try removing the battery and powering on the computer while it is plugged in. If possible try a different AC adapter.

The Lenovo web site is where you can find support for your system but I was not able to find any documentation regarding diagnostic codes.
