When i press the power button laptop screen is black.I removed ram and re-installed but nothing, i removed battery and hold the power button for 10 sec but still nothing, i plugged a second monitor through vga but still nothing.I noticed that the cpu fan doesn't work.I am afraid that the motherboard is dead :(
Please help !!!! anyone who knows more maybe help me.
 
Hi,

Before you consider that it's the motherboard try this last step. Do clean up the inside of the laptop. Make sure nothing is hitting the fan of the CPU, also if it's possible reapply a new thermal paste with the CPU and GPU. If all this still doesn't work clearly it's the motherboard.
