I have a HP ProBook 4530s that wont start up.
- Plugged in, it wont start up when I press the start button.
- When i plug in the power cord the light where i plug the cord lights up for 1 second then goes off.
- When I press the internet button next to the wifi button then the light next on the power button comes on for 10 seconds them goes off.
- And it does this everytime I push the internet button.

What you're calling the "internet button" is really only the WiFi on/off switch -- so all you are really doing is enabling/disabling the built-in WiFi adapter.
Sorry for the bad news, but when a laptop does not even power on, you have few if any options for getting it working again on your own.
To determine the cause with hardware failures, you have to be able run diagnostics. We have no way of accessing your PC from here, so we can not do that for you. You have to do it yourself. You do this by pressing the Esc key repeatedly when rebooting and then, when the HP Startup Menu appears, selecting Diagnostics (usually F2) and letting it run.
But if it is NOT possible to run diagnostics, then there is NOTHING more you can do by yourself -- and there is NOTHING we can do.
You will need to have the PC physically examined in a service facility by folks that can run their own diagnostics to determine what is wrong with it. And the problem with that is, while HP does do repair work of some sorts on PCs still under warranty, they generally do NOT do repair work on PCs out of warranty because they are not a general purpose repair facility. You would have to contact them in advance to see (1) if they are willing to work on it, and (2) if they will provide you any kind of repair cost estimate.
Since you live outside the U.S., here is a link to HP Service Centers, by Country/Region: https://support.hp.com/in-en/service-center
If that link does not get you a useful page, then use the main HP link:
