Default laptop problem

I wanted to know why my laptop is not working. I push the power button and it start to turn on for 2 sec then it shuts off again. I don't know what's wrong with it. I want to let someone fix it, but i am afraid it going to charge alot of money. if i can figure what's wrong with it then i can fix it myself. Can someone out there please help me out?

Hi gh, unfortunately fromt he sound of it - it's a hardware problems.

Due to the nature of laptops, this hardware problem will cost a fair amount of money to fix, and will be needed to be done by an authorised technician.

On the other hand....if it's an older laptop and you're feeling adventerous.....


However if yoiu really need the laptop operational and you want it working, it would be worth what they charge to get it fixed. If its a Power Supply issue then it may not cost too much if it's something on the board however, you're prbably better off replacing it.
