Hi,
I plugged my computer this morning while running on battery and it switched off.
The fuse in the room burned as well.
Now, I cannot power on my computer anymore (even on battery)
Any help ....

It sounds like a short on the motherboard or a bad power supply. The only thing to try (besides motherboard replacement) is to pull the battery when unplugged. Then, pust the power button several times, holding it the last time fort 10 seconds. Then put back the battery and try to start it on battery. Don't use that power supply until it can be checked out.

Thanks
I will try that. Otherwise, I will exchange the motherboard or sell my baby for parts.
