Solution
Try a reset, with the power adapter unplugged and the battery removed from the laptop, press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds. Put the battery back in, plug in the adapter, see if any life then.

If still nothing after that, let us know what lights (if any) flash when you attempt to start the laptop.
