Hello @NoGameNoLife,

 

I have read your post on how your notebook computer is not able to power on, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!

 

Since there is a blinking orange light where the AC adapter plugs into your computer, I recommend following this document on Computer does not start and the LEDs blink or the computer beeps, as well as Using and Testing the AC Power Adapter. This should help to restore the power to your notebook.

 

If the issue persists, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.
