HP Pavilion g6-1241sa

Hi,

 

Initially my Pavilion g6-1241sa was powering on but the screen was black. I decided to take the machine apart as it had not been used in years and I thought there may have been some dust buildup causing a connection issue with the screen. However, after performing some light cleaning and putting the machine back together the machine no longer powers on. When I plug a charger in I see an orange light next to the cable but no response from the power button.

 

i have already tried the following:

>>Hard reset

  1. Shut down your notebook and remove the battery.
  2. Press and hold the power button for 15 seconds.
  3. After 10-15 seconds reinsert the battery.
  4. Start your notebook and check if the problem is solved.

>>Bios recovery

  1. Shut down your notebook.
  2. While notebook is turned off the press and hold [Windows Button + B].
  3. While pressing these keys press power button for 3 seconds.
  4. Release power button after 3 seconds while keep pressing [windows button + B]
  5. Your notebook will boot into BIOS recovery mode immediately or it will beep 8 times and will take 45 seconds to boot into BIOS recovery mode.
  6. Do not release [Windows button + B] Until you don't see the BIOS recovery mode on your LED screen.
  7. Follow on-screen instructions to recover bios.

However, neither of these have worked. Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Many thanks
