HP Pavilion dv6700 won't turn on

[SansNation]

So I decided to open my mother's old HP pavilion dv6700 and I wanted to see if it works, I press the power button nothing happens, I don't know what to do, it seems that the laptop is getting powered but won't turn on.

Can someone please tell me what can i do?

With a laptop this old, there is unlikely to be anything you can do without spending some money.

The battery is almost certainly stone dead -- and some of the older laptops won't boot with a dead battery, even if it is removed.  You can try removing it and seeing if your laptop boots with just the A/C connector.

If it then boots, the press F2 repeatedly while rebooting to run the diagnostics.  And, tell us what they report.

The major problem you're going to have with a laptop that old is that no one carries recovery media that old, so even if the drive gets replaced, there is nothing you can get to use to reinstall Windows on it.  Plus, any new Windows version, like Win10, is not going to have drivers that work with hardware that old.
