Laptop Won T Turn On Without Battery. I even bought a new one from my local Best Buy today and that didnt work. If the LEDs do not glow and there are no other indicators of power being available to the computer contact HP for technical assistance in troubleshooting a potential problem with the AC power connection.

If the battery does not accept the charge or the notebook does not turn on without the AC adapter contact HP to order a replacement battery. My laptop now wont power up on battery no lights nothing but if i would plug in the charger it boots without pressing power. The battery is normal and not empty.

In my case the computer - a Compaq SA423 - with the AC adapter on its own wont start without the battery either. I opened my laptop vivobook s15 r542uq to clean the fans.
