I purchased this spectre convertible 3t-ap000 directly from HP online for ~ 2 yrs ago. Today, I cannot power on when push the power button. The light flashed up for ~2 second then went off. I follow instruction found in this forum with no luck. When just using AC power (detached the battery connector from the board), it does not power it up either. Is the motherboard burnt like one of the users mentioned in this forum? I paid premium price for this laptop and didn't expected to last for just a couple of yrs. I have non brand name laptop costed just a few hundreds bucks and still running over 10 yrs.
