    Try removing both the battery and AC adapter from the laptop and pressing the power button down for about 15-30 seconds. Then, plug in the AC adapter only and then try powering on the laptop.

    Maybe stupid, but are you sure it is still on when pressing the power button for shutting it down?

    I just ask, because my HDD LED light is on nonstop, even if the laptop is off and also off mains - I doubt it is true for you with the power button LED, but I just wanted to ask ...

    I never had such a problem - disassembling it to the most inner parts, and test bit by bit is the only idea I have ...
