Hello everyone,My lap top stopped working after 3 years of using it ...It won’t turn on even with battery or without it.The light where the charger goes it stays on but still doesn’t work.tried the 20 sec to discharge the power without battery and plug still won’t turn on...Any suggestions? If I replace the motherboard it might work?

It MIGHT -- but that is likely to cost as much as replacing the laptop, and since the Windows license is locked to the specific motherboard, you would also have to BUY a new Windows license for the second motherboard.
