Sony VAIO FE-41S - Boot Failure/Does Not Power Up
Hello,
I have a Sony VAIO FE41S that has unexpectedly stopped booting/powering on.
Upon attempting to power up - the Power Button displays a green light as per usual, but nothing boots e.g. no fan noises, display does not turn on.
This happens regardless of the Computer having both AC Adaptor/Battery charge, Battery Only or AC Adaptor only. Holding the Power button for 5 seconds does not turn the Laptop off as usual, and pressing it repeatedly just causes the Battery icon to flicker on/off.
If the computer is hooked up the the AC Adaptor, and no button is pressed, the Battery icon double-blinks regularly (suggesting it is charging) - but this seems to achieve no effect.
Any ideas?
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate any thoughts you guys may have.

I just realized that i made a big mistake when i said "it could be the power supply"... i forgot the obvious (the battery IS the power supply!)
With that said... i believe its a motherboard problem. I wouldn't know how to diagnose though...
