My notebook has stopped working, I get a black screen when it starts up, and the login noises don't happen. I know my battery is shot, but what can I do to fix this?

What happens when you press the power button? What do you hear turn on? What do you see turn on? (LEDs, fan, hard drive etc..)


Even though you said you can't hear start-up sound, have you tried connecting your laptop to an external monitor? Like a monitor for a desktop?
