Asus Eeebook X205ta not working

[hyltonrand]

My Asus has stopped working after two years. When I plug in the charger the light comes on(orange charging light) however it still won't switch on even when fully charged. When I try the hard reset the power light comes on however switches off again after letting go of the power button, the charging light also dims slightly when this happens. Could anyone help

Try the following and see if it will turn on...

1. Unplug your charger cord.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the "Power" button for 30 seconds.
4. Now plug back in the power/charger cord.
5. Now put the battery back in.

If this doesn't help, then test the power cord to see if it is good. Either try your cord in another device, or try another devices cord in your laptop. You may also want to try charging it when the device is off, rather than on. If it works then, the cord is probably the issue.

Should that not be the problem, then check the battery to see if it needs replacing.

NOTE: While the battery may be complicated to get to, it should be replaceable. Unless it is under warranty, then you should contact the manufacturer.
