Have a hp pavilion G-60 laptop w/AMD cpu. Unaware that I was blocking the cpu fan discharge port while laptop was on my lap. Laptop went BLANK like a light turned off at switch. No smoke, odor, or sign of overheating. Now laptop will not start using battery or power cord alone or power cord with battery installed. Tried removing battery and pressing and holding the ON button for 20 seconds to drain static power to reset motherboard with no success. Is there a reset on the motherboard or cpu? What are my options?
 
Nothing, no fans, video, sound at all. When I plug the power supply into the laptop, the little white led next to the plug in on the laptop lights up. That's all. None of the 3 power indicators left of touch pad light up (power indicator, charging indicator, or hard drive indicator).

Then either the CPU, GPU or another motherboard resource, possibly the power jack circuit itself, has experienced thermal damage and likely the unit is either irreparably damaged or in need of disassembly and replacement of the damaged component which depends largely on whether you have integrated CPU graphics, a soldered in CPU or what exactly is damaged. Power jacks can be replaced as can other components including the motherboard. It could also simply be that the fan has failed and without a reference signal from the fan the system will refuse to power on in order to protect itself. Since the fan port was blocked, fan failure is a high probability, but CPU failure is possible too.
