It's an old laptop HP G62 with Windows 10. And has been running very slow recently. Then when I went to turn on she wouldn't power/bootup. Thought I'd sorted with a new battery and plug but no. So ATM got white light showing on plug. When I switch on lasts for few seconds then flips off. I've cleaned out fans and inside incase it was overheating. Done one hard reset and power came on and started to go through process of self diagnosis and then went off again. Not sure what to do now????. Leave for couple of hours???Any help to get my old faithful back to life would be much appreciated.
