Sorry if there is a post similar to this, I'm just desperate in finding a final verdict on my poor laptop.
Ok here's the thing, my laptop, COMPAQ Presario CQ61-215EE has a broken battery (don't mind it), and a working charger. I use my laptop with the batter and the charger all the time. But my laptop hanged on startup once (staying in a black page), I became impatient of waiting and pressed and held the power button. After the laptop turned off, I tried turning it on again, but it didn't. I checked the LED light on the side of the laptop to see if the charger feeds the laptop power, I noticed it isn't so I assumed 2 things, charger's fried, or something is wrong with the laptop. I removed the charger tried putting it back again, and noticed that the LED blinked once but the turns of instantly. With this, I assumed that the charger is working, so I expected maybe a short in the laptop? I tried hard resetting it but alas, nothing. So I let it rest for 1, 2 days or so and constantly tried hard reset, but it still won't work. Whenever I connect the charger, the LED still blinks once then nothing. Based on what I researched and some inquiry, it seems to be a motherboard problem. What do you guys think? Any other possible problems?
If the motherboard really is the problem, what do you guys suggest I should do? Buy? Let someone fix it? etc. Thanks in advance! :D
