What’s Wrong With my Computer? It won’t turn on.?
Why isn’t my computer turning on? I was in the middle of watching a video on YouTube. Suddenly, my screen goes black. I assume that I just needed to plug it in. But when I do, nothing happens. It doesn’t turn on. I used several different outlets, yet, it still doesn’t turn on. The several LED lights by the SD card; only one blinks(above it is a small lightbulb symbol). I have a Windows 8 Laptop. Any guesses on what happened?

Overheating can cause something like that... Try keeping it off for an hour and try again...
Otherwise, it may already be trying to tell you something... A blinking light can be a diagnostics message. Look up your manufacturer's guide and see if your pattern and/or light color has any meaning. It may tell you exactly what the problem is (used a lot in Dell laptops)
The battery is totally depleted. Plug in the charger and leave it over night. It will then start.
if its too hot then you may need to observe a FORCED wait of 45 mins before it will turn on again.
technician. likely your power supply is dead -- needs to be tested
