I have strange issue with my dell inspiron 15 3520 notebook. Since I bought it in December'2012, it was working absolutely fine. But a week ago it suddenly won't power up when I press the power button.

However, when I power on the AC and start it in a cozy 20 degree celsius, it suddenly starts working fine! Any reason why its happening. The dell bios tests at the startup all shows okay for the cpu, fan, hdd etc. Without AC, the normal room temperature here in western india is about 34-38 degree celsius in summers. Is it not advisable to run laptops in this environment? But then how come other laptops around me work fine in the same climate?

Any help would be appreciated.

A Laptop should easily run in that temp without AC . I believe the Cpu cooler might be on the way out but as your laptop should still be in warranty the easiest think would be to send it in and have it replaced.
