The power lights turn on and fans for a couple seconds. no display though and the machines cuts off right away. at most 3 seconds its on for. battery is fully powered. tried plugged to power charger without battery and with battery. Not sure what the problem is though. It is a dell inspiron 13.3 inch laptop.
 
I had this issue with my Dell Latitude. It had heated up completely so I switched the fan in my room. The laptop cooled down. Then after switching on the laptop it booted.
