If the cpu fan died, that might be the reason it doesn't power up anymore, because almost all AMD motherboards care about that and won't start without a working fan. &nbsp;Replace the fan - if you are handy, you might be able to do this yourself, or get a shop to do it.

Hey Rid, thanks it worked!<br />
It's now making the dying cow noises just like before!<br />
Thanks again, oh and Callandor, I'll put that in the notebook in my head.

&quot;... dying cow noises...&quot; &nbsp;Hehehe, right. Fan bearings worn out or dried up. New fan indicated.<br />

Hey all,<br />
I have an HP Pavilion n5415, which does not power on, at all.<br />
no lights, noises, nothing. I have tried with the plug, without the battery, etc..<br />
It powered on until yesterday, I removed the hard drive (which was dead), to extract some important info, put it back in, and now nothing.<br />
Just a note, it was making some crazy sounds prior to this whole thing, it sounded like the cpu fan was hurting, but still, shouldn't there be some sign of power now?<br />
Thanks for nay help.

laptop won't power on..

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
