  • Hi, my seldom used HP pavilion 15 cw0509sa will not power on.

 

a little about me - I know very little about computers, so all advise gratefully received but layman’s terms please.

 

what I know

-the ac adapter appears to work, and when plugged in the light there is on. 

- the power on button light periodically comes on every few seconds

-nothing happens if I try and hold the power button to force a reset

- I am unable to run any sort of diagnostics as I can’t get that far

- there is no removable battery

- I have not done any sort of changes/upgrades

- it has not been used in a few weeks so may have missed an update? 

Any advise would be a massive help as I cannot afford a new laptop or to get my info restored.

 

thanks in advance

Forgot to add the light at the ac charger is red and the battery area is hot but no fan
