    My son's laptop (Toshiba) can't be turned on! Bigla na lang namatay at ayaw ng mag-on.

    Bago ko ipasok sa service center, baka may nakakaalam sa mga tsikoteers kung ano ang problema at paano ayusin. Baka sakaling pwedeng i-DIY.

    Thanks in advance!

    Try removing battery and plug it in AC outlet... if there is a power indication... then your laptop is good... and might be a battery problem. try to put the battery again and check if it works or not...

    btw, how old is your laptop?

    Thanks for the reply.

    It didn't work. It's 3 or 4 years old.

    Hmm I'm thinking a busted motherboard.

    Happened to my dad's first laptop, Dell. Although ilang beses na nabagsak, 2-3 feet high gumana pa din then one day di na mag-on. Sold it for 2k. Repair is 7k, the laptop was way old the repair cost looks too much for me.

    I found a few tips that might revive it:

    -reseat the memory sticks.
    -remove cmos battery for a minute and then return.

    Thanks for your replies and will try your suggestions.

    Just checked the cord and adapter. They're working.
