After 3 years of constant use I shut down my laptop one night, I came back from a truck route 2 days later and found no response from power. Unit was left plugged in. I removed the battery and did the power purge as you said, i had to hold the chassis power 15 seconds and then got a board response. After no video I cycled again, booted. Thank you very much, I would not have considered this as a procedure.
My laptop is always different... Even tutorials with 95% succes rate always don't help and well, this didn't aswell, thank you anyways and I'm glad it worked for others.
Sorry this didn't work for you. It most likely isn't because it's different but because something else happened. if it's not a a power flush or new battery or new charger, it could be the DC jack or the motherboard needs reflow or repair. Some of these solutions may require a laptop repair expert. I hope you find resolution soon.
@@amosfeldman9454 it was out of battery lmao, the cable was either broken or gotten so weak it couldnt charge the computer fast enough, I noticed in past month its charging very slowly, now im answering your comment from the same laptop and with a new charge cable
Worked for me too! It was such a tiny hole and the icon above it was so small I would have never found if i didn’t know to look for it. Thank you. I found your solution pretty quickly so you saved me a lot of time, stress (I need my laptop working now for school), and money. It’s awesome how you reply to everyone’s questions with sound advice! Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for your kind words and glad it was helpful. I definitely will try to respond to every single comment/question. Unless it's something I don't think I should reply to.
Followed your instructions exactly and this fixed the issue! Opened the thing up to upgrade the RAM, I was afraid I’d somehow toasted the motherboard or the RAM. Thank you!
Thank you so much! My RAM controller went into protection and the laptop refused to start without a bios reset. I thought I'd have to completely disassemble it, but this video saved me
Did not work for me, but the fact that you respond to so many and helped so many gets a like and sub from me. I can still hear the computer working and can even hear it boot up after I type my password, but the screen stays dark throughout. It initially turned off when I just tilted the screen back. It was very sensitive to having the screen moved. In fact if I get it to work again I'm not closing the screen or even touching the screen again. Not sure if that gives a clue as to what's wrong with it or not.
Thank you for your kind words, talking time to comment and your details definitely tell me what's wrong. The issue is your screen. The cable or screen inverter is damaged. Your video cable is most likely getting pinched as you tilt the screen. I bet if you put a little pressure on different parts along the bottom of the screen you will notice the screen light up and go dark. That confirms where the issue is but I can pretty much guarantee you need a new screen which they normally come with a new inverter board and cable. You could plug an external monitor in and you'll see everything working fine.
Daniel, you're a star. Computer is working like a charm again, brilliant video. In my case, I only had to do the 60 sec thing (thanks for the comment that mentioned that) and that made the trick. Thanks so much!
Hey Daniel! Thank You, My Laptop turned on, However I didn't have to unscrew the laptop itself neither take out the battery, I just did the 60 second hold like you said and put in the charger, then it turned on and works fine! Appreciate it man, Thank You 😊👍🏼

How do you fix a dominator that is shutting down under heavy load it was diagnosed with motherboard failure but I do not think that is the case do you know what the issue could be it has no instant shutting down but rather overheating issues.
Hello Revan. Not sure how it was diagnosed as a motherboard failure, who said it was a motherboard issue? Anyway you also said you believe it is overheating. Maybe a fan isn't spinning properly anymore, maybe not spinning at all. Maybe dust build up or clogged fans with pet hair. You'd have to open it up and inspect the fans to make sure they are free spinning. Also you can purchase a cooling pad for your laptop to help when under heavier loads like lengthy gaming.
It requires more troubleshooting as any issue could go in a different direction. Maybe bad memory, maybe it is turning on but just your screen is dead, maybe power cord or the outlet you are plugged into. Too much to troubleshoot here.
Hi Thanks for the Video. I have the same concern but it was after i tried only of removing and replacing a keyboard. After so, my laptop just turns the keyboard on and nothing happens. I use an external monitor that I have been using for this laptop but still no Video. History of this, is that moisture may have affected my laptop after being left on a rainy days. And I left it about a week. Molds started inside the room as I returned and as I tried using it the monitor started to flicker and after few days I lost some Keys from working. So I tried to check wiring on my keyboard and install them again. But now become worst. Hope you could share more thoughts. Thanks You. Watching from the Philippines.
Thanks and sorry it didn't work. If you can't power up to get to the BIOS, you can't flash the BIOS. Also, flashing the BIOS won't fix that type of issue.
Sorry I no longer have that laptop in my possession but it shouldn't mater. All makes/models can work with this trick. Although it's not a guaranteed fix, it works alot of the time.
My MSI GF75 died on me while at the library, first time in about three years. Tried disconnecting the battery and hooked the power up and it booted. Re-connected the battery and it appears all systems go for now. Thank you for this great tip!!!
You're welcome. Glad it worked for you. Excellent question. the simplest answer I have is dirty power or issues with motherboard not allowing proper flow.
Thank you very much! I've had to do this twice on my wife's MSI - the second time I did it in 5 minutes or so. Any idea what causes this? I'd hate to have to do this every two or three months...
You're welcome. This is a problem if you have to do it every so often. That's a sign there's an issue with the motherboard. you could pay to have the motherboard repaired or replaced, or see how long you can string it along doing this simple fix every few months or so.
Sir help me, my laptop wont turn on I've tried tye process you have mentioned but its not working. I've tried also removing cmos battery and insert it again but not working again. Any idea? Thank you
Thanks for the sub and glad I could help. That noise could be the root cause of the issue. You'd have to try to isolate the noise to see if it's the hard drive or a fan. You'd have to open the laptop up, remove the drive and check it externally and look at the fans if spinning freely. You might need a repair shop.
The type of screws seem to change sometimes from model to model and year to year but generally I use a standard phillips screw driver. The smaller of the two standard sizes that come in any set. I don't know the size number.
I had my RAM upgraded earlier today, it worked fine for a few hours but suddenly crashed and won't turn on again... any tips before I bring it to a professional?
You could be on to something there. Sounds like it's possibly a ram issue and you either got bad RAM or the wrong type. make sure if you upgrade it is compatible. you can run a memory test as well which I have a video on.
You're welcome. It sounds like maybe a bad charging port or general issue with the motherboard that needs to be reflowed. If you like the laptop and fast enough, it's worth it to get the motherboard repaired by your local repair shop.
MSI GE68 Apache here. My laptop won't turn on or show signs of life at all. I have used multimeter to test key components. I get around 3.6-4.5 volts off the motherboard plug that connects to the battery with the DC charger connected into the jack. Wondering why it wont turn on if it appears to be charging through motherboard properly.
This was very helpful and worked. I didnt need to open up the laptop. Unplugged the power cord, held down the power button for 60 seconds, replugged the power chord, waited a few seconds and pressed power button. Cheers for your help.
Hi, Daniel. Just want to know your quick opinion. My laptop is MSI GP66 Leopard and the battery was drained and won't turn on even when plugged. I followed this guideline and the laptop still dead. Is the issue lies on the power adapter? Sorry for my question, thank you.
Sounds like the next step is try a new power adapter. Maybe you can borrow one to confirm before buying. If that doesn't work, most likely needs motherboard repair.
Hi Daniel, your video help a lot, i have the same laptop (MSI GL62M 7RDX) i tried it but it still won't turn on, the light indicator in power button is off too. Can you help me what to do with it?? Thanks in advance
Thanks a lot!! Had it with Creator P75. Did the 1 minute button hold and then let it recharge for a while. *It didn’t go back up straight ahead, had to give it 15sec hold on power couple of times.
There's definitely something wrong but could be any of a number of things including what you are mentioning. If troubleshooting yourself, try with least expensive possible solution first and work your way up. Otherwise maybe cheaper to pay a tech who has all the parts to try swapping out with.
@@Syntxnic You can use anything thin enough like a guitar pick and plastic. Ideally you don't want anything metal because it can short circuit something you might touch inside without knowing it.
I have an MSI Laptop MS 1792 which I use for large panorama photo editing. I also have an Acer Predator for the same purpose, with 8K video output from HDMI port. I recently decided to remove the battery from the Predator and run it from the power supply which came with it. It runs fine. I use both laptops with large, external TV screens and have the laptop screens turned off. I disconnected the battery from the MSI laptop, and it ran for a while on the provided power supply. After several minutes, I got a low(12%) battery message. Since then, it will not turn on. Help!
Thanks for your comment. This is very odd and doesn't make sense. Not sure why you'd leave the battery out to begin with, but regardless, this doesn't make sense and I don't troubleshoot in chats. You'd need a local tech to look at it and determine what is wrong.
This can work with all makes and models of all years. It's not always the solution but certainly is something free you can try yourself before paying anyway. But if it's under warranty still, there is a chance that you could lose your warranty coverage opening the computer.
I have a new msi gaming laptop and it’s less than a month old. Power cut out. Now it’s not turning on. I’m assuming this is a warranty covered problem since it was bought new. Would you recommend me trying this ? Or taking it to where I bought it.
I think this is what they would try anyway to send back to you after repairs. However, if you have to break any seals to get at the battery, I would advise against it because it would void your warranty.
You're welcome. if you have to do this several times, especially daily, that means there maybe some sort of issue with the power flow. May not be anything to do with the battery or power adapter. It maybe the motherboard that has some sort of issues that needs to be looked at.
Thanks for your question. Although this video specifies MSI it's good for all makes and models of laptops. The only difference is many laptops with many different ways of accessing the battery and some have a pin hole to reset the power on the bottom of the laptop.
This sounds like a faulty motherboard. You could try a new battery but could be wasted money if it doesn't work. Better to get it professionally diagnosed and if its' not the battery you won't be stuck with buying one. Just make sure they guarantee results if not the battery, they can take it back and fix the motherboard.
Hi I bought a new battery and I installed it in the my laptop but, unfortunately the issue still persists. I will try to find a computer store to check what exactly the issue. Thank you
I believe I answered this a couple times already in past comments. Maybe it's worth making a video about it. You can review the other comments but its' basically a power blockage needing to be flushed.
basically it's usually either the battery, power adapter, the outlet it's plugged into or the motherboard. Unless it is turning on but the screen is dead. Small chance of bad memory as well but that usually will make a beeping sound. A bad drive would still show you something on the screen.
MSI GS66 Stealth laptop. I was charging my laptop, came back to it 2 hours later and it wouldn't turn on. I unplugged the charger and still nothing. I could hear static noise coming from the laptop where you plug in the charger. I came across your video and held down the power button for 60 seconds then I released it. I noticed the static noise went away right after. Waited a couple of seconds and pushed down on the power button and viola, it worked. Is there a problem with my laptop or charger? Thanks!
I'm glad you found this helpful. If this happened only once, it's just a temporary power glitch. if it happens again, maybe an underlying issue that needs troubleshooting.
UPDATE: After trying everything below, I took apart the laptop, removed all the old thermal paste, cleaned everything (even fans and fan housing), applied new, fresh thermal pads and thermal paste to CPU, GPU and all other parts that previously had thermal paste. Placed a single stick of RAM in the laptop, and closed it up. upon connecting power and rebooting, the MSI logo came up and the laptop is now working. I've been able to use a new storage device and download all drivers and software and everything is working great - no issues. My MSI laptop power light flashes white briefly and then just turns orange. The keyboard doesn't light up, but the fans are working and pressing the fans button they go even stronger. Nonetheless, the screen stays dark and never comes up. I have tried resetting bios settings via the pinhole / switch and also holding down power 60 seconds with battery removed and with battery in... so far nothing. Also, any link to a completed disassembly of the MSI 65 laptop?
Thanks for taking time to write. Sounds like you're comfortable diving deep here. Normally you don't need to tear apart the laptop for all that you did. Normally if this issue isn't fixed by what is shown in this video, it means something maybe wrong with the motherboard which needs either reflowing, some chips replaced or entire motherboard replaced.
Didnt work for my MSI GL Leopard is there anything else I can try? And I have only had this laptop Since March of this year. Do you think the Chicony Charging adapter may be bad?
Thanks for your question. Yes, if still won't turn on, possibly the battery is dead and the charger won't provide enough juice. There is also a small chance if not the charger there's an issue with the motherboard that needs repairing at your local shop. But it's pretty cheap to get another charger to try, and if it doesn't work, you have a spare at least. One to keep at home and one for travel.
thanks for the video, my MSI laptop turns on (power light on) but it doesnt boot up or show anything on the screen, and after a few seconds, the computer turns off... it happens sometimes, specially in cold days or when i take it to coldest places , what could it be? thanks
That sounds a little strange. normally cold is good, not too cold but heat is a killer and make the fans work harder. Can't be overheating which is what it sounded like, but if in a cold environment it's worse? I don't think I heard of this before. Someone needs to look at it. Maybe it's just a coincidence about the temperature.
I got MS-14DK with me, and I have the same problem but it didn't work. Although my keyboard has already problem because some keys don't work so well (Enter Key). I hope you can help me. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for your question. Sounds like could be related to your keyboard if the power button is embedded in there. There are many possible reasons for a computer problem, so it might be helpful to check out my latest video th-cam.com/video/BVwx6GruurU/w-d-xo.html which has some other hopefully useful suggestions
Hi Daniel, I tried what you did but unfortunately it did not work. I get no signs when I plug the charger or anything. I also have an msi similar to what you had and I was also using it completely fine the previous day. not sure what caused the issue. what do you think might be the problem?
Hello daniel, I have the same Msi laptop. I have been facing black screen issue the laptop & backlit turns on but the caps lock doesn't turn on & the screen is also black. Any suggestions or any kind of help will be appreciated. Thankyou!!
If this solution doesn't work, sounds like it's not the screen either if caps lock not lighting up either. Could be power adapter, battery or motherboard needs a repair.
I have exactly the same problem with other MSI model. However, laptop was a bit hot before it stopped working. Before draining the battery, did you experience the same? (I mean, the overheat)
This solution would be for bad power flow. The issue you have sounds like overheating which maybe the fans need to be cleaned out and especially from the heat sync. you might want to open it up and use compressed air to blow out all the fans and a little all over to get dust out.
I tried this multiple times. It actually works now and then. I noticed a blue light blinking in the area of the battery indicator whenever I pressed the button. So I replaced the battery and it worked worked few days. Once I forgot to charge it before the battery goes off and the same problem has started again. I have a msi gl63 8rd. I got a multimeter to track the power flow and i notice that 19.8v is completely delivered to the mother board and about 3v to the battery side for charging. But I do not notice the battery charging when plugged in. Could you please give me a suggestion? Is the motherboard at fault? Currently it's not working at all inspite of doing this procedure multiple times.
@@TwinBytesInc thank you for your suggestion. But doesn't it also mean the laptop should work without the battery? I am facing issues on both the cases.
@@TwinBytesInc to provide a clearer picture. The laptop did not turn on at all after I noticed that the first battery was at fault. Once I replaced the battery, with a new one, it actually started to work even without the battery. But for about one week or 10 days I did not operate the laptop, before fixing the new battery. Now, after working for few days, the laptop battery died due to not charging, as I did not plug it in. Notice that the charging worked perfectly fine while I was using the laptop. Now, out of nowhere it does not work at all, like the old times. This is the scenario.
Sounds like motherboard issue of some sort. I can't troubleshoot here further. Someone needs to look at it to confirm. You've already isolated the issue it sounds like.
You don't need any tool to separate the bottom on an MSI laptop except for the screwdriver. I was easily able to pull the bottom of mine off by sliding my fingernail along the split and lifting up. Most laptops are not that easy, they'll have screws hidden under the keyboard, they'll have spots holding the bottom on, and sometimes you can't even get inside without breaking the case entirely.
Yes, there are so many variations to how the laptops are built, so instructions very greatly. You can just go by how MSI works, you'd have to look for the specific model of MIS, but for how TH-cam works, I can't do every single model. :)
Hey man can you help me? Im MSI GL62M 7rd. Power button is lid but monitor keep blank. Before that, I was doing monthly routine cleaning my laptop, and there was a button at the motherboard written SW3. Out of curiosity I pressed it. Then my laptop just blank forever (can't bios). Tried your 60 sec trick still no work. Help is appreciated, thanks
I don't know what would have happened now. Even I wouldn't have pressed that button. it's something you need to really know what it is before messing with it. It's some sort of interrupt button according to a quick Google search, but in most cases we never have to touch any buttons on the motherboard. You'll need to lookup this button in the user manual. Or take to your local expert.
If this video didn't help and the whole in the bottom didn't do it either, then maybe a new power adapter if not bringing power in. Otherwise most likely motherboard needs repair or replacement.
Anything slim and firm to slide inside, but not too far and damage components. Also I avoid metal so not to make contact between components and fry something. I like plastic which a guitar pic works perfectly. Even if you are not a guitar player, computer stores sell tools that include guitar pic shaped wedges. Or you can go to a music store and they offer free pics to customers. I don't recommend walking into a music store to get a free guitar pic, that's kinda bad, but whatever you gotta do I guess. :)
Sirr, I want to ask that my laptop is msi gf63 thin 9rcx, the problem is that he can't turn on the laptop without the help of a charger, but if the charger is unplugged after that, the normal laptop doesn't turn off, it's just that if you turn on the laptop at the beginning you have to be assisted with a charger, what's wrong 🙏🏻
That's very strange, I don't think I've seen that before. It sounds like there is something wrong with the battery that it can't have enough charge to boot the laptop, but it can hold a charge to keep it going after it is started. I am only guessing at this point, but sounds like the problem is the battery. If not the battery, it's a motherboard issue that needs repairing.
Thanks for this. My problem is that it won't wake up with mouse click or keyboard, etc. It only wakes when i press the power key. I looked in setting and it looks like it should but does not.
There must be a setting somewhere that is off in either the power management in control panel or power management tab of the keyboard and mouse properties in the device manager.
@@TwinBytesInc Thanks for the reply, appreciate it. Yes, it is very odd. The only solution I could find was turning the sleep to 'Never' while on battery and while plugged in and then having the screen turn off after a period of time, so that it does not sleep at all, just allows the screens to shut down.
Mr Gauthier it doesn't work for me I have an msi gp73 it was shut down I thought it was a light cut off but no after that I tried to turn it on nothing it doesn't work I did I tooked restart the bios with the flash boton. I had a problem with the battery before sometimes charge and sometimes no but now it doesn't turn on at all and even putting the adapter the light of charging is not turning on. What should I do in this case please... I'm studying and working with the laptop every day I don't know what to do...
Thank you for your question. It's possible the charger is dead and needs replacing. If you can borrow someone's to try it and find out, maybe you just need to buy a new charger. If not, that maybe a motherboard repair that you require.
I can't fix BIOS issues remotely or over the phone or by chat. they are all different so step by step instructions vary. The manufacturers website should have instructions with links to latest BIOS upgrades if any available. If it's just a boot loop, Windows may simply need a repair/reinstall. but also could be a bad hard drive which means testing the hard drive with a bootable USB or removing the drive and testing on another computer. Too much to get into here.
Thanks for your video, I wish I had seen it before paying $150 USD just for doing exactly this. Do you know what causes this problem? since the first time (a couple of months ago) it's beening happening like every 1 or 2 weeks.
I'm sorry to hear you had to pay first to find out how simple the solution "can be". I don't know exactly what causes it but usually poor power flow which can be fixed maybe by reflowing the motherboard, or dirty power. Maybe if you're plugged straight into the wall, try going through a power bar or even better, go through a UPS battery surge protection system.
Thank you. It sounds like you have an operating system problem, not a hardware problem which this video is about. There are many things you can try and without getting into a billable troubleshooting, you can try a system restore point or reinstall Windows preserving data. I'm releasing a video tomorrow on system restore.
Hi I just replaced the ram on my MSI GL65 leopard laptop, I followed your instructions regarding draining the battery I put it back together and it just shows the charging light but it will not turn on. The fans are working but the screen is not starting up
It seems it's from the new ram I purchased, it boots up after I put in the original ram. Can you recommend to me a compatible memory for my MSI GL65 Leopard? I want to upgrade it from 16gb to 32gb. I am not that tech-savvy, and I would really appreciate it
you can use this website is great! www.crucial.com/store/advisor I did a video on it years ago but it changed alot. Time for a new video. You can enter your computer info to search or use the system scanner. Alternatively find the manual for your exact system.
Hello Daniel. I have an Msi gt72s with a non removable battery. I hve tried to reset the battery by pressing the refresh button, but so far this hasn't worked. What should i do next?
I don't think I've seen one with a non-removable battery. They maybe inside the laptop with several screws holding it down and a cable attaching it to the motherboard. Otherwise there maybe a pin hole on the bottom of the laptop if that's what you were referring to which can be used to reset. Aside from that, you might need a professional to look at it and see if motherboard needs repair or replacement.
After 3 years of constant use I shut down my laptop one night, I came back from a truck route 2 days later and found no response from power. Unit was left plugged in.
I removed the battery and did the power purge as you said, i had to hold the chassis power 15 seconds and then got a board response. After no video I cycled again, booted.

Thank you for your kind words, talking time to comment and your details definitely tell me what's wrong.
The issue is your screen. The cable or screen inverter is damaged. Your video cable is most likely getting pinched as you tilt the screen. I bet if you put a little pressure on different parts along the bottom of the screen you will notice the screen light up and go dark. That confirms where the issue is but I can pretty much guarantee you need a new screen which they normally come with a new inverter board and cable.
You could plug an external monitor in and you'll see everything working fine.

How do you fix a dominator that is shutting down under heavy load it was diagnosed with motherboard failure but I do not think that is the case do you know what the issue could be it has no instant shutting down but rather overheating issues.
Hello Revan. Not sure how it was diagnosed as a motherboard failure, who said it was a motherboard issue? Anyway you also said you believe it is overheating. Maybe a fan isn't spinning properly anymore, maybe not spinning at all. Maybe dust build up or clogged fans with pet hair. You'd have to open it up and inspect the fans to make sure they are free spinning. Also you can purchase a cooling pad for your laptop to help when under heavier loads like lengthy gaming.
@daniel gauthier this didn’t work for me do you have any ideas of what else I could do to fix this problem?
It requires more troubleshooting as any issue could go in a different direction. Maybe bad memory, maybe it is turning on but just your screen is dead, maybe power cord or the outlet you are plugged into. Too much to troubleshoot here.
Hi Thanks for the Video. I have the same concern but it was after i tried only of removing and replacing a keyboard. After so, my laptop just turns the keyboard on and nothing happens. I use an external monitor that I have been using for this laptop but still no Video.
History of this, is that moisture may have affected my laptop after being left on a rainy days. And I left it about a week. Molds started inside the room as I returned and as I tried using it the monitor started to flicker and after few days I lost some Keys from working.
So I tried to check wiring on my keyboard and install them again. But now become worst. Hope you could share more thoughts. Thanks You. Watching from the Philippines.
So great video. Thank you. Unfortunately did not work for me. Is it possible to flash the BIOS from a blank screen?
Thanks and sorry it didn't work. If you can't power up to get to the BIOS, you can't flash the BIOS. Also, flashing the BIOS won't fix that type of issue.
i can’t believe that really worked, thank you so much !!!! 😭❤️🙏🏼
You're welcome
@@TwinBytesInc thank you man god 🙏
Cannot thank you enough. Had the same problem, followed the steps and it worked!
I'm glad I could help. Taking time to comment and thumbs up is a great way to say thank you. :)
Thank you Daniel!!!
Replacing a dead computer was not something I wanted to do and, thanks to you, mine responded just as you demonstrated! Wonderful!
Awesome! Glad it worked.
Thank you, from Spain. You saved me from a painful situation.
You're welcome.
Thank you, this worked and saved me from panic mode!❤
You're welcome. Glad it helped.
I nearly shat myself! It's my work laptop. You saved me!
You're welcome. Glad I could help.
Hello. May I ask what laptop this is in the video specifically?
And also, I’ve done what was instructed; but no luck, sadly.
Thanks, anyways.
Sorry I no longer have that laptop in my possession but it shouldn't mater. All makes/models can work with this trick. Although it's not a guaranteed fix, it works alot of the time.
Worked for me. Thought I was going to have to claim on the insurance until I saw this. Thanks!!
Great! Thanks for taking time to comment
My MSI GF75 died on me while at the library, first time in about three years. Tried disconnecting the battery and hooked the power up and it booted. Re-connected the battery and it appears all systems go for now. Thank you for this great tip!!!
Glad it worked for you. Thanks for taking time to comment.
I'm picking one up tomorrow with a power problem. I hope this is the fix. I'll keep you posted. Great video regardless if it worked for me
Great worked for me. Thank you, just holding the power button 20 seconds. I was wondering why this black screen happened as it's good to know why?!
You're welcome. Glad it worked for you. Excellent question. the simplest answer I have is dirty power or issues with motherboard not allowing proper flow.
It worked for my GS63. Thank you!
You're welcome. Thanks for taking time to comment.
Thank you very much! I've had to do this twice on my wife's MSI - the second time I did it in 5 minutes or so. Any idea what causes this? I'd hate to have to do this every two or three months...
You're welcome. This is a problem if you have to do it every so often. That's a sign there's an issue with the motherboard. you could pay to have the motherboard repaired or replaced, or see how long you can string it along doing this simple fix every few months or so.
Sir help me, my laptop wont turn on I've tried tye process you have mentioned but its not working. I've tried also removing cmos battery and insert it again but not working again. Any idea? Thank you
Sorry, aside from this video instruction, you would need someone to look at it. Maybe motherboard needs repair or replacement.
didnt have to remove the battery just had to hold the power button for 60 seconds. your video literally just saved this 7 year old laptop from e-waste
Glad to help
Thx!!! It worked like a charm!!!
Awesome! Thanks for your comment.
I followed your technique and it works fine. I solve the problem. Thanks you.
Glad it helped
This method just worked for me ds why I subscribed to ur channel thanks👌 the issue now is that my laptop is making a strange sound
Thanks for the sub and glad I could help. That noise could be the root cause of the issue. You'd have to try to isolate the noise to see if it's the hard drive or a fan. You'd have to open the laptop up, remove the drive and check it externally and look at the fans if spinning freely. You might need a repair shop.
hello, what size screw driver did you use? i have to purchase one in order to open my laptop and i don’t want to buy the wrong one
The type of screws seem to change sometimes from model to model and year to year but generally I use a standard phillips screw driver. The smaller of the two standard sizes that come in any set. I don't know the size number.
I had my RAM upgraded earlier today, it worked fine for a few hours but suddenly crashed and won't turn on again... any tips before I bring it to a professional?
You could be on to something there. Sounds like it's possibly a ram issue and you either got bad RAM or the wrong type. make sure if you upgrade it is compatible. you can run a memory test as well which I have a video on.
@TwinBytesInc I took it to a professional, and one of the two RAM sticks were faulty :/
You my good man deserve an award thank you ! :)
Wow, thanks!
Thank you for your effort
It works at first but now doesn’t work !!
Maybe Butter need to replace or what ?!
You're welcome. It sounds like maybe a bad charging port or general issue with the motherboard that needs to be reflowed. If you like the laptop and fast enough, it's worth it to get the motherboard repaired by your local repair shop.
MSI GE68 Apache here. My laptop won't turn on or show signs of life at all. I have used multimeter to test key components. I get around 3.6-4.5 volts off the motherboard plug that connects to the battery with the DC charger connected into the jack. Wondering why it wont turn on if it appears to be charging through motherboard properly.
Worked on the Msi Gt 77 after ram setting oc. Thx so much for the great tutorial.
Glad it helped. You're welcome.
This was very helpful and worked. I didnt need to open up the laptop. Unplugged the power cord, held down the power button for 60 seconds, replugged the power chord, waited a few seconds and pressed power button.
Cheers for your help.
Great! I'm glad to hear this.
Which model
It worked like charm! Thanks a lot to save the day!!!
That's awesome! You're welcome.
Hi, Daniel. Just want to know your quick opinion. My laptop is MSI GP66 Leopard and the battery was drained and won't turn on even when plugged. I followed this guideline and the laptop still dead. Is the issue lies on the power adapter? Sorry for my question, thank you.
Sounds like the next step is try a new power adapter. Maybe you can borrow one to confirm before buying. If that doesn't work, most likely needs motherboard repair.
Great video you save my life
Thank you for your kind words
Hi Daniel, your video help a lot, i have the same laptop (MSI GL62M 7RDX) i tried it but it still won't turn on, the light indicator in power button is off too. Can you help me what to do with it?? Thanks in advance
I'm glad you found the video helpful but if it still doesn't work. It's either you need a new battery, new power cord or motherboard repair.
Thanks a lot!!
Had it with Creator P75.
Did the 1 minute button hold and then let it recharge for a while.
*It didn’t go back up straight ahead, had to give it 15sec hold on power couple of times.
You're welcome. I'm glad it worked even though required more effort.
Het Daniel! My laptop recently did this, and now it’s done it again not even 2 days later. Is there an issue with the charger or the ram or something?
There's definitely something wrong but could be any of a number of things including what you are mentioning. If troubleshooting yourself, try with least expensive possible solution first and work your way up. Otherwise maybe cheaper to pay a tech who has all the parts to try swapping out with.
I f'n LOVE YOU. Worked like a charm
You're welcome. Glad it worked.
What did you use to pry it open because don’t have a guitar pick so what should I use
@@Syntxnic You can use anything thin enough like a guitar pick and plastic. Ideally you don't want anything metal because it can short circuit something you might touch inside without knowing it.
I have an MSI Laptop MS 1792 which I use for large panorama photo editing. I also have an Acer Predator for the same purpose, with 8K video output from HDMI port. I recently decided to remove the battery from the Predator and run it from the power supply which came with it. It runs fine. I use both laptops with large, external TV screens and have the laptop screens turned off. I disconnected the battery from the MSI laptop, and it ran for a while on the provided power supply. After several minutes, I got a low(12%) battery message. Since then, it will not turn on. Help!
Thanks for your comment. This is very odd and doesn't make sense. Not sure why you'd leave the battery out to begin with, but regardless, this doesn't make sense and I don't troubleshoot in chats. You'd need a local tech to look at it and determine what is wrong.
Thank you so much for this! It worked :)
Great to hear! You're welcome!
Hey, does this work with brand new laptops? I just got mine but it has the same problem and I want to know before I try anything
This can work with all makes and models of all years. It's not always the solution but certainly is something free you can try yourself before paying anyway. But if it's under warranty still, there is a chance that you could lose your warranty coverage opening the computer.
thanks man it worked
i use that one min trick you told to do so without open whole thing and it show my laptop is charging .
Excellent! you're welcome
I have a new msi gaming laptop and it’s less than a month old. Power cut out. Now it’s not turning on. I’m assuming this is a warranty covered problem since it was bought new. Would you recommend me trying this ? Or taking it to where I bought it.
I think this is what they would try anyway to send back to you after repairs. However, if you have to break any seals to get at the battery, I would advise against it because it would void your warranty.
Thank u ..I just hold the power button for 1 min and it worked
You are welcome
Thank you very much, it worked for me. But in my case I have to do it every day, is there a definitive solution? Why is this happening? Help 😢
You're welcome. if you have to do this several times, especially daily, that means there maybe some sort of issue with the power flow. May not be anything to do with the battery or power adapter. It maybe the motherboard that has some sort of issues that needs to be looked at.
Bro saved my life
That's awesome!
Hello, i have same problem but with other model, msi gf63 thin 9rcx, please help me
Thanks for your question. Although this video specifies MSI it's good for all makes and models of laptops. The only difference is many laptops with many different ways of accessing the battery and some have a pin hole to reset the power on the bottom of the laptop.
did u find a solution
Thank you so much. This video really saved me!
You're welcome. Glad it was helpful.
Thank you. I did your steps and the laptop worked fine for a few day and the issue is back again. is there any permanent solution?
This sounds like a faulty motherboard. You could try a new battery but could be wasted money if it doesn't work. Better to get it professionally diagnosed and if its' not the battery you won't be stuck with buying one. Just make sure they guarantee results if not the battery, they can take it back and fix the motherboard.
Hi
I bought a new battery and I installed it in the my laptop but, unfortunately the issue still persists. I will try to find a computer store to check what exactly the issue.
Thank you
You're welcome
Can you tell me what actually is the problem of this happening??
I believe I answered this a couple times already in past comments. Maybe it's worth making a video about it. You can review the other comments but its' basically a power blockage needing to be flushed.
This didn't work for my laptop unfortunately, don't suppose you've any other tips I can use? If not I may just have to look into getting it repaired
basically it's usually either the battery, power adapter, the outlet it's plugged into or the motherboard. Unless it is turning on but the screen is dead. Small chance of bad memory as well but that usually will make a beeping sound. A bad drive would still show you something on the screen.
MSI GS66 Stealth laptop. I was charging my laptop, came back to it 2 hours later and it wouldn't turn on. I unplugged the charger and still nothing. I could hear static noise coming from the laptop where you plug in the charger. I came across your video and held down the power button for 60 seconds then I released it. I noticed the static noise went away right after. Waited a couple of seconds and pushed down on the power button and viola, it worked. Is there a problem with my laptop or charger? Thanks!
I'm glad you found this helpful. If this happened only once, it's just a temporary power glitch. if it happens again, maybe an underlying issue that needs troubleshooting.
My guy daniel🤝
Thank you
Worked for my msi laptop. Thanks.
Great! You're welcome.
That's fantastic mate, thanks!
You're welcome! Thanks for taking time to comment
Thanks this helped a lot.
Glad it helped. Thanks for taking time to comment.
Thankyou so much. It worked 🎉
You're welcome! Glad it worked for you.
Merci beaucoup Daniel, vos astuces m'ont carrément sauvé d'un fort mauvais pas.
Aucun problème. Je suis heureux d'être utile.
UPDATE: After trying everything below, I took apart the laptop, removed all the old thermal paste, cleaned everything (even fans and fan housing), applied new, fresh thermal pads and thermal paste to CPU, GPU and all other parts that previously had thermal paste. Placed a single stick of RAM in the laptop, and closed it up. upon connecting power and rebooting, the MSI logo came up and the laptop is now working. I've been able to use a new storage device and download all drivers and software and everything is working great - no issues.
My MSI laptop power light flashes white briefly and then just turns orange. The keyboard doesn't light up, but the fans are working and pressing the fans button they go even stronger. Nonetheless, the screen stays dark and never comes up.
I have tried resetting bios settings via the pinhole / switch and also holding down power 60 seconds with battery removed and with battery in... so far nothing.
Also, any link to a completed disassembly of the MSI 65 laptop?
Thanks for taking time to write. Sounds like you're comfortable diving deep here. Normally you don't need to tear apart the laptop for all that you did. Normally if this issue isn't fixed by what is shown in this video, it means something maybe wrong with the motherboard which needs either reflowing, some chips replaced or entire motherboard replaced.
Didnt work for my MSI GL Leopard is there anything else I can try? And I have only had this laptop Since March of this year. Do you think the Chicony Charging adapter may be bad?
Thanks for your question. Yes, if still won't turn on, possibly the battery is dead and the charger won't provide enough juice. There is also a small chance if not the charger there's an issue with the motherboard that needs repairing at your local shop. But it's pretty cheap to get another charger to try, and if it doesn't work, you have a spare at least. One to keep at home and one for travel.
Mine shows 100% battery but turns off when unplugged.
@@banzaisbanza Thanks for your comment. That sounds like your battery is bad and needs replacing.
thanks for the video, my MSI laptop turns on (power light on) but it doesnt boot up or show anything on the screen, and after a few seconds, the computer turns off... it happens sometimes, specially in cold days or when i take it to coldest places , what could it be?
thanks
That sounds a little strange. normally cold is good, not too cold but heat is a killer and make the fans work harder. Can't be overheating which is what it sounded like, but if in a cold environment it's worse? I don't think I heard of this before. Someone needs to look at it. Maybe it's just a coincidence about the temperature.
It helped me, thanks!
You're welcome. Glad it helped you.
I got MS-14DK with me, and I have the same problem but it didn't work. Although my keyboard has already problem because some keys don't work so well (Enter Key). I hope you can help me. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for your question. Sounds like could be related to your keyboard if the power button is embedded in there. There are many possible reasons for a computer problem, so it might be helpful to check out my latest video th-cam.com/video/BVwx6GruurU/w-d-xo.html which has some other hopefully useful suggestions
Hi Daniel, I tried what you did but unfortunately it did not work. I get no signs when I plug the charger or anything. I also have an msi similar to what you had and I was also using it completely fine the previous day. not sure what caused the issue. what do you think might be the problem?
if this video didn't help, chances are the motherboard is the problem and needs repair.
Hello daniel, I have the same Msi laptop. I have been facing black screen issue the laptop & backlit turns on but the caps lock doesn't turn on & the screen is also black. Any suggestions or any kind of help will be appreciated. Thankyou!!
If this solution doesn't work, sounds like it's not the screen either if caps lock not lighting up either. Could be power adapter, battery or motherboard needs a repair.
Thankyou for the reply Daniel.@@TwinBytesInc
You're welcome
Wow I didnt think it would work, thanks mate
No problem 👍
This save my day! It works! Thank youuuuu!
Awesome! You're welcome!
You are the man!!!! Thought I fried my laptop for good
Thanks for your kind words!
I have exactly the same problem with other MSI model. However, laptop was a bit hot before it stopped working. Before draining the battery, did you experience the same? (I mean, the overheat)
This solution would be for bad power flow. The issue you have sounds like overheating which maybe the fans need to be cleaned out and especially from the heat sync. you might want to open it up and use compressed air to blow out all the fans and a little all over to get dust out.
I tried this multiple times. It actually works now and then. I noticed a blue light blinking in the area of the battery indicator whenever I pressed the button. So I replaced the battery and it worked worked few days.
Once I forgot to charge it before the battery goes off and the same problem has started again. I have a msi gl63 8rd.
I got a multimeter to track the power flow and i notice that 19.8v is completely delivered to the mother board and about 3v to the battery side for charging. But I do not notice the battery charging when plugged in.
Could you please give me a suggestion? Is the motherboard at fault?
Currently it's not working at all inspite of doing this procedure multiple times.
This definitely sounds like the charging chip on the motherboard. Someone who does motherboard repairs can replace any bad chips etc.
@@TwinBytesInc thank you for your suggestion. But doesn't it also mean the laptop should work without the battery? I am facing issues on both the cases.
@@TwinBytesInc to provide a clearer picture. The laptop did not turn on at all after I noticed that the first battery was at fault. Once I replaced the battery, with a new one, it actually started to work even without the battery. But for about one week or 10 days I did not operate the laptop, before fixing the new battery.
Now, after working for few days, the laptop battery died due to not charging, as I did not plug it in. Notice that the charging worked perfectly fine while I was using the laptop.
Now, out of nowhere it does not work at all, like the old times. This is the scenario.
Correct
Sounds like motherboard issue of some sort. I can't troubleshoot here further. Someone needs to look at it to confirm. You've already isolated the issue it sounds like.
THANK YOU SO MUCH I THOUGHT I HAD TO BUY A NEW ONE I SUBBED AND LIKED I LOVE YOU
You're welcome and thanks for the love.
My tears of joyfulness, thank you sir. 😭😭😭
You're welcome
You don't need any tool to separate the bottom on an MSI laptop except for the screwdriver. I was easily able to pull the bottom of mine off by sliding my fingernail along the split and lifting up. Most laptops are not that easy, they'll have screws hidden under the keyboard, they'll have spots holding the bottom on, and sometimes you can't even get inside without breaking the case entirely.
Yes, there are so many variations to how the laptops are built, so instructions very greatly. You can just go by how MSI works, you'd have to look for the specific model of MIS, but for how TH-cam works, I can't do every single model. :)
Thanks a lot sir
Most welcome
Hey man can you help me? Im MSI GL62M 7rd. Power button is lid but monitor keep blank.
Before that, I was doing monthly routine cleaning my laptop, and there was a button at the motherboard written SW3. Out of curiosity I pressed it. Then my laptop just blank forever (can't bios).
Tried your 60 sec trick still no work.
Help is appreciated, thanks
I don't know what would have happened now. Even I wouldn't have pressed that button. it's something you need to really know what it is before messing with it. It's some sort of interrupt button according to a quick Google search, but in most cases we never have to touch any buttons on the motherboard. You'll need to lookup this button in the user manual. Or take to your local expert.
Hello, my leopard 8re gp63 has a blue power button for a few seconds then goes off, no power whatsoever, the charging light doesnt come on either.
If this video didn't help and the whole in the bottom didn't do it either, then maybe a new power adapter if not bringing power in. Otherwise most likely motherboard needs repair or replacement.
Im having trouble opening the panel. I dont have a guitar pick any. I tried a card but it didnt do the trick. Any ideas to get it to open?
Anything slim and firm to slide inside, but not too far and damage components. Also I avoid metal so not to make contact between components and fry something. I like plastic which a guitar pic works perfectly. Even if you are not a guitar player, computer stores sell tools that include guitar pic shaped wedges. Or you can go to a music store and they offer free pics to customers.
I don't recommend walking into a music store to get a free guitar pic, that's kinda bad, but whatever you gotta do I guess. :)
Sirr, I want to ask that my laptop is msi gf63 thin 9rcx, the problem is that he can't turn on the laptop without the help of a charger, but if the charger is unplugged after that, the normal laptop doesn't turn off, it's just that if you turn on the laptop at the beginning you have to be assisted with a charger, what's wrong 🙏🏻
That's very strange, I don't think I've seen that before. It sounds like there is something wrong with the battery that it can't have enough charge to boot the laptop, but it can hold a charge to keep it going after it is started. I am only guessing at this point, but sounds like the problem is the battery. If not the battery, it's a motherboard issue that needs repairing.
Thanks for this. My problem is that it won't wake up with mouse click or keyboard, etc. It only wakes when i press the power key. I looked in setting and it looks like it should but does not.
There must be a setting somewhere that is off in either the power management in control panel or power management tab of the keyboard and mouse properties in the device manager.
@@TwinBytesInc Thanks for the reply, appreciate it. Yes, it is very odd. The only solution I could find was turning the sleep to 'Never' while on battery and while plugged in and then having the screen turn off after a period of time, so that it does not sleep at all, just allows the screens to shut down.
Mr Gauthier it doesn't work for me I have an msi gp73 it was shut down I thought it was a light cut off but no after that I tried to turn it on nothing it doesn't work I did I tooked restart the bios with the flash boton. I had a problem with the battery before sometimes charge and sometimes no but now it doesn't turn on at all and even putting the adapter the light of charging is not turning on. What should I do in this case please... I'm studying and working with the laptop every day I don't know what to do...
Thank you for your question. It's possible the charger is dead and needs replacing. If you can borrow someone's to try it and find out, maybe you just need to buy a new charger. If not, that maybe a motherboard repair that you require.
Thanks sir , u so help me
You're welcome. Glad to help.
Thanks for the info!
You're welcome
Hello sir, can you fix a bootloop MSI laptop in the BIOS? Thanks u sir
I can't fix BIOS issues remotely or over the phone or by chat. they are all different so step by step instructions vary. The manufacturers website should have instructions with links to latest BIOS upgrades if any available. If it's just a boot loop, Windows may simply need a repair/reinstall. but also could be a bad hard drive which means testing the hard drive with a bootable USB or removing the drive and testing on another computer. Too much to get into here.
Appreciate it 🗣💯It WORKKED
You're welcome. Thanks for taking time to write me.
Thanks for your video, I wish I had seen it before paying $150 USD just for doing exactly this. Do you know what causes this problem? since the first time (a couple of months ago) it's beening happening like every 1 or 2 weeks.
I'm sorry to hear you had to pay first to find out how simple the solution "can be". I don't know exactly what causes it but usually poor power flow which can be fixed maybe by reflowing the motherboard, or dirty power. Maybe if you're plugged straight into the wall, try going through a power bar or even better, go through a UPS battery surge protection system.
@@TwinBytesInc thanks Daniel! I'll try that.
Thank you so much buddy..!! This totally worked.😍😍
You're welcome. Glad it worked.
Great video, hope you can help me out. I have an MSI GE72 Apache Pro that would not update and now will not boot properly. What can I do here?
Thank you. It sounds like you have an operating system problem, not a hardware problem which this video is about. There are many things you can try and without getting into a billable troubleshooting, you can try a system restore point or reinstall Windows preserving data. I'm releasing a video tomorrow on system restore.
Hi I just replaced the ram on my MSI GL65 leopard laptop, I followed your instructions regarding draining the battery I put it back together and it just shows the charging light but it will not turn on. The fans are working but the screen is not starting up
It seems it's from the new ram I purchased, it boots up after I put in the original ram.
Can you recommend to me a compatible memory for my MSI GL65 Leopard? I want to upgrade it from 16gb to 32gb. I am not that tech-savvy, and I would really appreciate it
you can use this website is great! www.crucial.com/store/advisor I did a video on it years ago but it changed alot. Time for a new video. You can enter your computer info to search or use the system scanner. Alternatively find the manual for your exact system.
Hello Daniel. I have an Msi gt72s with a non removable battery. I hve tried to reset the battery by pressing the refresh button, but so far this hasn't worked. What should i do next?
I don't think I've seen one with a non-removable battery. They maybe inside the laptop with several screws holding it down and a cable attaching it to the motherboard. Otherwise there maybe a pin hole on the bottom of the laptop if that's what you were referring to which can be used to reset.
Aside from that, you might need a professional to look at it and see if motherboard needs repair or replacement.
