I turned the computer off and tried to turn it back on, but instead of turning on, the green power button started lighting on and of every so often. I took the battery out so it stopped flashing. When I put it back in, it was the same. I also noticed that when I click the power button, the light that says that “you are charging the computer” comes on and if i hold it, it stays on. When I actually charge it, it sometimes lights up and sometimes doesn’t. Can you please help?
Hi, What is the model number of your Vaio laptop? Try the following: Remove the charger, then remove the battery pack from the laptop. Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds then release the button. Connect the charger to the laptop and switch on the charger. (leave the battery out of the laptop at this stage). Start the laptop. If the laptop starts, allow it to boot all the way to the Windows desktop. When the laptop has ‘settled’ down, (i.e HDD light is not continually on) shutdown the laptop in the normal way. When the laptop has completely shutdown, switch off and remove the charger from the laptop. Re insert the battery into the laptop, reconnect and switch on the charger and start the laptop. If the laptop starts allow it to boot all the way to the Windows desktop. Once there check the charge state of the battery. If it is charging allow it to fully charge before switching off the charger and removing the charger from the laptop.
kdcao1 try removing one stick of memory at a time and try booting with just one stick in at a time . If there is only one stick see if you can get another dimm of memory and try it . This is often what happens when memory fails . you may also want to try connecting an external monitor to make sure the problem isn’t the screen . When you start the machine does it beep ? If so what are the beeps, long or short, how many beeps? Does it flash the bios screen?
Hi @Akshay Kumar Try creating a Win 10 USB recovery disc from any known working Win 10 PC. Go to Control Panel > Recovery > Create a recovery disc and follow the prompts. You will need a 8GB flashdrive and 40-60 minutes of time. When you have the recovery disc, start the laptop and get into BIOS. Change the boot order to USB 1st boot option and also enable USB Legacy setting (or CSM setting - not sure as you don’t say the model) save the changes and insert the flashdrive and then restart the laptop. It should boot from the USB. When it does go to Troubleshoot > Advanced > Startup repair and follow the prompts.
If your computer isn’t turning on at all or no lights are blinking then you probably have power issues. So, unplug your computer and plug it directly into the wall outlet then you see your computer is working but make sure the power switch on the back of your power supply is flipped on, and if the outlet is connected to a light switch, make sure that switch is turned on too.
Most probably the ram is toasted try to replace ram and switch it on.
