Hp Pavilion dv7 will not turn on

[Nickm1290]

Hello,

My pavilion dv7 will not turn on. It says the battery has 3 bars. When the battery is installed, the white light by the charger port is lit. When I plug the charger in all the way there is a dim white light lit. I have tried removing the power source and battery, holding the power button for 30+ seconds and trying to power up. I've tried with both in, just the charger in, and just the battery in. Each time I get nothing. Each time between I held the power button down with no power source attached. I'm starting to lose my patience lol please help
