Welcome to thinkpads.com!

There can be many things that will prevent a laptop from turning on. What is the model type? It should be on a label on the bottom of the system and is in a format like nnnn-ccc, where "n" is a number (0-9) and "c" is a character (A-Z, 0-9).

Also, I will be moving this post to another board after you reply. This board (FORUM RULES, HOW-TOs, etc) is for questions about the Thinkpad forum itself, not about any particular problems you may have with your computer.
