Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Hello. Our office found a model 15da0033wm laptop. It boots, but runs particularly slowly w/ only 4 gigs of ram. I refreshed Win10 and ordered some memory. (Full Disclosure: I've been using microcomputers since the days of CP/M and have a degree in MIS, so I'm not a neophyte.) Having cracked the case and swapped the memory sticks, the computer won't come back to life. When I plug in the power the LED comes on, so it's getting electricity. But when I press the power button, the LED goes out, and nothing else happens. I've tried pulling the battery and resetting everything, the problem persists. Thanks in advance for any help.
