Question Dell Inspiron 15-7577 Gaming Laptop not turning on

[mayfair1229]

Dell Inspiron 15-7577, when plugged in to the chargers the fans start running without turning on. But when you press the power button theres no display and laptop does not turn on, any suggestions on what to do?

Are you also using a Dell power supply (not an aftermarket power supply)?

 

[mayfair1229]

Yes its the original power supply from dell

Try pressing the power button and hold down for at least 30 secs. This may reset the laptop to allow access to the BIOS and/or diagnostics.

 

[mayfair1229]

Have tried that, doesnt do anything

Is your Dell under warranty?

 

[mayfair1229]

No warranty expired a few months ago

 

[COLGeek]

Was the laptop dropped or did you have any issues before this started happening?

Does anything ever flash on the display?

 

[mayfair1229]

Its never been dropped, nothing on display at all, have tried an external monitor also but no display

 

[COLGeek]

Anything unusual just before this happened? Power surge/failure, etc?

 

[mayfair1229]

Nope nothing at all

I suspect a major component failure (like the motherboard). It might be worth checking with Dell to see if they will/can assist in repairing your rig. You could also try replacing the motherboard (or having a shop do for you).
