Last night i boot my laptop with pen drive with ubunto os and then done shutdown properly. Next day when i tried to press power button nothing is working. I tried removing battery and cleaned the ram but its not working.

Laptop Model : VCEB14EN (Sony Vaio)
3 years old (approx)
 
try to manually select your boot drive on splah page or try to go to your bios and set boot priority, it might still be trying to boot off pen drive
 


Its not showing any power in the machine...so how i can get to bios...its not starting up...
 
hmmm try to take out the battery and connect the power brick see if it turns on then, if it doesnt try to borrow another power brick to see if that is it
 


I have already tried that...its still not working...
 
if you tried switching the brick and removing the battery it sounds like it is a internal component in which im not that knowledgeable in capacitors and voltage regulation in a laptops mobo sorry, can you try a higher rated brick, like if your is a 95w try a 125w?
