Question ASUS Laptop not turning on but peripherals are

[trvicius]

I took my laptop to a technician for a cleanup and thermal paste replacement. Since the battery was already faulty, I had been relying on the power adapter. However, upon its return from the technician, the laptop refused to power on. Despite the peripherals lighting up, the laptop itself remained unresponsive—the cooler and power button were inactive. Strangely, after some time, it eventually did power on. Does anyone have insights into what might be causing this issue?



Laptop Model: ASUS K571GT

You might want to take the system back to the person who disassembled your laptop and ask them to reopen it with you present and to check every portion of the laptop with a multimeter, if the connectors inside the laptop are all in their right places.
