recap: Acer Laptop won't turn on , AC Lamp is off even while the laptop is plugged in, it only turns on for like 1 sec when I press the power button while plugged in then turns off , BUT the Battery power lamp is blue while plugged in. Already tried holding down the power button 30sec
------------

Okay, I should preface this with the fact that I am not the most well versed in how these things work, so I will do my best to explain.

I have an Acer Aspire V3-772G-747a8G1TMakk. I don't know what specs you might need, so here is everything I can read on the sticker:

-Windows 8.1

-intel core i7-3517U, 1.9 GHz

-8GB of RAM

-Intel QuadCore i7 4702MQ, 4x2,20GHz

It ran great, had no problems for 3 years then I replaced the HDD when it started to show signs of failure and added an extra SSD in the empty slot...it ran smoothly for an extra 6 months , until today , yesterday it was still working like a charm...I put it to hibernate mode/sleep it and today it just wouldn't turn back on.

Plugged out: When I press the power button neither the AC lamp nor the Battery lamp turn on .

Plugged In with the battery: When I tried pressing the power button the AC Lamp turned on for half a second then turned back off. I could hear a faint high pitched noise (not coming from the speakers) , the fan didnt start whirling neither did the Screen turn on. The Battery Lamp which was blue , meaning connected but not in charge, promptly turns off while I press the power button, then turns back on ( I must say the battery is pretty much dead, I only keep it so that in case of a power outage I have a few seconds to save my data, but yeah it's pretty much useless)

Then I removed the battery, unplugged the power cable and held the power button for 30 secs- 1 minute

Plugged in , without the battery: AC Lamp turns blue for a short while then turns back off again, without anything starting to boot.

What I have tried:

- Repeating holding down the power button several times

- Using a different Acer power cord

-Unplugging and trying, plugging it back in and trying. All variations of taking out and putting back in the battery and trying to turn it on.

-That is pretty much the end of my expertise level...

HALP? :(
