Laptop died
I have a Sony PCG VX89 that I have had for a long time and am happy with. I bought a new battery for it this week because the old one would not hold a charge. I put the new battery in, put it on charge for the night, saw the yellow light flashing periodically indicating the battery was taking the charge.
This morning, went to turn it on, and nothing. No lights, no response at all. Battery in or out, old battery or new, dead as a door nail.
Checked the external power and it is giving a good 16 volts. Jiggled the ON switch, which has never given trouble before, and nothing.
What can I check? Are there fuses or reset buttons in laptops? Any clues?
