I went away for a day and unplugged the power supply in case of a power surge due to thunderstorms.
When I returned the power icon next to the battery icon was not visible.
The battery gets charged but then the power icon disappears and the lap top is only running on battery power.
I have tried unplugging the battery and power and holding the power button but nothing happens...maybe my power cord is faulty?

I would agree that it could be the cord. Try a different cord on your computer and see if it works. If that is the case, then just replace your cord.

If that isn't the case, then it may be an internal issue, but I would not worry about that until after you check the cord.
