How To Fix Dell Computer Wont Turn On - No Power - Dead Laptop

If your Dell laptop computer is not turning on, this is the first troubleshooting video you should watch. This video is for a computer that is either 100% dead and shows no signs of life or shows some lights and sounds but turns off soon after. If you are able to see anything on the screen at any point, this may not be the video you need. Check out the FAQ's and Related Video Links below !!

FAQ's:
Q: Does this video apply to my issues?
A: This video is for computers with no signs of life that appear 'dead'. It will also help if you see minimal signs of life such as lights only or some hard drive / fan sounds but they stop right a way. If you are able to see anything on the screen at any point or if the hard drive / fan sound remain on, your issue could be something else. Leave me a message with your exact symptoms and I can direct you to the correct video :)
Q: I have tried all the steps seen here without identifying the issue :(
A: If, after all these steps, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; • How To Test your Lapto... & • How to Fix Test Power ... . You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.

I've been more than an hour trying and retrying your methods in a Latitude. The last solution (removing the CMOS battery) worked for me after doing it twice. So an enormous thank from here since your video is great and your knowledge too. The only thing that I don't like is the system of Superthanks... if I'm not wrong KZbin takes about 30% and that's ridiculously high. I don't know a lot about this kind of fund systems but I think that Patreon could be better, they take 5%. It's cumbersome for one time donations but at least you get more money, I think that a lot of people would do a one time donation.

Dear brother. I'm commenting from a Dell laptop that was completely DEAD... Likely a power surge from an external drive, but nothing, nada. Got through your video to the place of taking out the battery and draining power before trying with the power plugged back in. This worked beautifully. Only had to reset the time.

Thank you so much for these helpful videos! I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3501. It had low battery and turned off by itself. I could not turn it on anymore with holding power button for a few seconds. 1. I tried to hold the power button for >10 seconds, it turned on and said low battery and turned off again and forever. 2. When I plugged the charger on, the charging indicator light is not on. I checked power jack and charger, both have 19V. 3. I also took off CMOS battery for about 20 minutes and then put it back. Still, these steps did not work. Would you please provide suggestion? I do not understand why the charging indicator is off. It was on while I quickly plugged the charger in the power jack when it complained about low battery. Then everything is off.

So I tried all the power options but none of them worked. I didn't try removing the memory as shown but I did remove the CMOS battery to see if it perhaps needed replacing because for me this seemed more likely to cause an issue than the memory. To be honest I couldn't really understand why the possible failure of the CMOS battery would cause the Laptop to even try and fire up the hard drive and power but I was wrong and when something is broken almost anything is worth a try! It didn't require replacing, as it was reading over 3v so presumably OK. Surprisingly when I reinstalled the CMOS battery and tried powering it back up it worked! I didn't expect it to work but had seen your video so obviously was going to try everything before either throwing or taking it to a repair shop!

Sometimes black screen comes after few seconds of turning on the lap or sometimes after hrs of working. I can see dell logo and windows logo every time I turn it on. After that only black screen appears. From today onwards screen got darker and was able to see icons only by using flashlight. I checked with external and its working but my lap screen is still dark. Please help

1. For a computer that turns on but the display does not work, try this video first; kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2rMqmZmf5VjY80 Let me know how that goes :) 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

[@shinithak3671]

@@PC_Monkey actually I watched that video and messaged there. But you didn't notice :( that's why I messaged here. The screen getting dark is intermittent. Like sometime happens and sometimes it doesn't. Today I used my lap for about 11 hours and its still working. But yesterday screen went dark after few minutes And for the 2nd question I did updated Windows but for few days it worked normal as far as I can remember. Nothing else happened. Thank you for the reply

[@shinithak3671]

@@PC_Monkey it's fine. I got your reply, here or there it doesn't matter. What do you think might be the problem with my lap?

[@PC_Monkey]

Have you tried the manual BIOS reset as seen here? kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWesY3iZbrBqotk If so, and if none of those fixes have helped, your most likely looking at a motherboard issue or a component on the motherboard that would involve soldering to replace. Would you like help with that?

[@IWish_IHaveAName]

is this fixable after the charger is electrocuted while their laptop is charging including the old laptop that is released in early 2008?

[@PC_Monkey]

It depends on how far the damage has gone. If the power cord was damaged by an electrical surge, it would first need to be replaced. Also, the power drain procedure seen here in this video may have to be performed several times. If the damage stopped at the cord, the computer may be fine. But if the damage went further, other components may have been damaged and may need to be replaced.

My HP ProBook 6470b not powering anymore, each time I tried to turn it on, white light will just be blinking on, I tried all the process you stated in your video but still don't work. But the adaptor charger is working for another system. Kindly help out.

[@PC_Monkey]

If, after all these steps, you have not been able to find the issue, your most likely looking at a faulty component preventing the motherboard from working or a motherboard issue. I would start troubleshooting each component, starting with the charger and power jack. You can see those two videos here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3PLpIl-nsmYfac & kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqHEk6mog8aimrc. You can also try replacing other components like your Power Button to see if that is the route cause. If none of those are the issue, you would then be left with a motherboard replacement.

I dont know the version but my laptop screen can be detached and only charging sign shows and the screen wont work pls tell what to do and yes the battery is not like your laptop battery

[@PC_Monkey]

I dont fully understand your comment. Your computer screen comes off. Ok. You said, 'only charging sign shows and the screen wont work...'. I dont know what that means. Are there any signs of life at all when you try to turn it on? Lights? Fan, Motherboard, or Hard Drive sounds? Anything seen on the screen?

I have a dell laptop. I have not used it for a long time. Two day days back when I turned it on it came on for a few seconds and turned off. Now the laptop is totally dead. I tried your suggested steps to turn it on and it is not working. I am lost do you have any suggestions.

Hi man Thank you for this I watched the video and now the charging light is on but the display isn't turning on. Can you please guide me further???

[@PC_Monkey]

1. Are the lights the only signs of life when you turn it on? No motherboard or hard drive sounds? No fan noise? Nothing on the screen? 2. Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Overheating, liquid spill, Windows update, etc?

Hi PC I have a Latitude E5550 with the no-start problem. I did all the other tricks to no avail. I removed the left-hand RAM and it will start, but will not with any card inserted in the LH port. I just put a new 8GB in the RH slot and it works (so far)...seems to be the LH port is yucky......Your thoughts?

[@PC_Monkey]

Ya, could be a faulty RAM port :(

Hi Fixed same problem . System Bios CSM/UEFI if your on later windows 10 or windows 11 check your main hard drive is UEFI . Then go into your Bios make sure system is set to UEFI not CSM.

I can't get my Dell laptop back on. The internal battery was more or less dead before this happened and I always had it plugged in from the all socket. Any ideas how I could get it back on? Tried pressing the on button for one minute etc...

Did you try all the steps seen here? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?

[@MegaLochgelly]

@@PC_Monkey Thank you for the quick reply. The laptop's battery was dead before this happened, so I always had it plugged into the mains. When I press the on button, it seems like it is going to start. For 5 secs I hear the laptop, then totally dead. I haven't opened the laptop to take out the internal battery. should I try that?

[@gokul_gk_4]

I did the residual power drain since my laptop didnt turn on. After that i plugged in, indicator is On, but fan isnt running, display not turning on. Just the chrging indicator is on.

Hey Jamin, thanks for your tutorial, unfortunately, it did not work on my Dell Inspiron 15 3505. Here's what I've done so far: 1 - I've tried (more than once) all the suggestions in this video, except the BIOS reset, as my model has nothing to do with what you have shown here or in any other video. 2 - I bought a brand new battery and an AC Adapter directly from Dell, as one of the errors was pointing towards a bad battery. even though I've changed both the battery and AC adapter, nothing has happened. One thing that caught my eye is the following: The whenever . Could that rise another issue? Any further suggestions on that? Thanks for the great content. Rafael

I've tried all these tips and it's not charging still. Was able to run a system check.. came up that the ac adapter is not installed??? I don't know what that means, please help!!
