Compaq Evo N180

My laptop wont power up! The light shows its plugged in. The battery is charged. But when i hit the power button to turn it on nothing happens. There are no blinking lights and no noise. The machine is very much dead.

The power button when pressed feels like its making contact.

The machine wasnt dropped, nothing was spilled on it and hasnt been showing any signs of dying hardware.

What could be wrong with it?

take out the battery and then plug it in then hold down the power button for 15 sec and push it again if that does not work call tech support
