- 1. Connect the AC adapter to a known good power outlet. Check Power LED indicator on AC Adapter with/without plugging into the Notebook.
- 2. If LED on the AC Adapter goes off only after connecting to notebook, the issue is with the motherboard.

I had the same problem with my Dell Inspiron 3537. I called customer care and they said that it's a motherboard problem and that I'll have to replace it. But this thing worked for me right now and I'm so relieved. I had two RAMs in my laptop. I opened the back of my laptop, tried checking the the RAM one by one. Then, I switched the places of RAMs and tried to turn my laptop on. After that, I put them back to their original positions. Somehow, it worked. My laptop started. Hope this helps.

The laptop shuts down immediately after boot screen. Charger is fine. It's spitting 20v.
Sounds like a CPU or motherboard issue. No beeps on boot either.
