Welcome to the forum.
Remove battery, then connect AC adapter and try to boot. Any luck?
If not, also remove HD/CD/RAM and try to boot from AC again.
If the motherboard is still 'alive' you should now hear 1-3-3-1 beeps.
If not, you probably need a new motherboard.
What is the 7-character TYPE and PRODUCTID on the label on the bottom of the laptop?

Unfortunately, there is no battery. AC adapter I have used so far.
TYPE: 2007-CTO

Thank you for your response.
The idea of removing the ram was very good.
It turned out that the previous owner beleöntőt anything, the motherboard stuck in the sugar.
After cleaning, it works, but not perfect the sugar dissolves contact spray.

Please translate "beleöntőt" into English.
2007-CTO means Configure-To-Order.
The real TYPE may be in the PRODUCTID underneath it, or check the first 7 charcters in the BIOS SYstem-Unit serial Number.
Use Isopropyl Alcohol (a.k.a. Isopropanol from a pharmacy) 90% or better to clean the motherboard.
