HP Pavilion dv6-1225sf Entertainment Notebook PC

Hello!

I have an HP Pavillon DV6-1225sf Entertainment Notebook PC.
It seems that the battery died but it's ok since I can use it as some sort of desktop computer.

But no matter what I do it refuses to turn on, it makes the power led (on the front) blink like its indicating that it doesnt have enough battery. I removed the battery to see if it changed anything but no :c it just doesn't even make the power led blink. 

Is there a way to use it without a battery ?

With the battery removed and the power adapter plugged in are there any LEDs iluminated?

 

I see online that replacement battery and even power adapters are really inexpensive. Why not replace the battery?

Sadly even with the battery removed it doesnt boot!

The light on with the on off sign is light up for 1 second then everything shuts down and no led are lit up

"light on with the on off sign?" What is that?

 

A failed memory module can cause that to happen.
