    Hello-

    My vaio has no power since I cleaned out the dust balls. Once I cleaned out the dust it was working perfectly fine, but then I forgot that the battery pack was in and the power cable harness accidentally came out of it's slot. When I tried to put the power cable harness back in it's slot I think I sent a surge or blew a fuse on the motherboard because now when I hit the power button to turn it on nothing happens, no lights absolutely nothing. Can anyone tell me if my motheboard is completely dead or is there a reset button anywhere? I did check the power cable harness in another pcg frv37 that I have and it works fine and so does all the other parts.

    Ok, I found one problem with needing a new power cable harness and my computer now turns on but there is a blank screen. Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this problem?
