vaio is not turning on

awais136 — Sat, 18 May 2013 08:56:55 GMT

Hi I have Sony VPCEH290X and It was working fine for last one and half year. I shut it down properly last night and then tried to turn back on next morning But it is not turning on. As warranty has expired I opened it and checked if the problem is with power supply but voltmeter shows that it is giving exact power to the motherboard. I tried to plug out RAM but nothing. Any suggestions?

Hi awais136 and welcome.

Does anything happen when you turn the Vaio on?

Any lights coming on?

Any sounds of HDD activity?

Does the fan turn on?

This looks like a Sony USA Model, was it a CTO model (Customised to Order)? If so, have you checked the warranty with Sony USA as in EU the warranty is 2 years for CTO models?

Yes u r right its was customized from US. I got it when I went there. No light, no fan, no sound of anything.. I haven't checked for warranty but I think it was for one year. I will re check it again by calling customer customer care. Any idea how it can be fixed?
