When you say fried you mean dead?
Since it shows charging light without powering on then something is definitely wrong with your motherboard but not fried.

Probably a bad power button or NBSWON/PWRBTN is not producing the required 3V.

Take it to a laptop engineer for diagnosis.
my power switch is bad, but I wanted to know if the motherboard is still good so that I wouldn't waste my time and money going to buy a new power switch

Go to where u want to buy the power switch, preferably used one cos those selling new one won't allow u to test.

If you have a multimeter you can test to see if 3v is present in the switch connector.

If you don't, just go to where you want to buy it, collect and test if it doesn't work I believe the person selling it will see it and won't force u to buy it since its not working.

Just post any problems you are having with your pc here. The more software related, the better. smiley

If you're having virus, worms or any other malware problems. Try scanning your PC with RoboSAM first.

Edit:
Sometimes, I may reply to your post but the spam bot will hide it, if it happens that others here cannot solve your problem, you can contact me by mail at relaxtuners at gmail dot com.

Good Luck

Well, .NetFramework is a software on it's own that you will need to download and install on your PC.

In the google search bar, type ".netframework 4.6". From the list of search result, click on the one that links to Microsoft website. Download from there- virus free.

Please I need photoshop on my PC. All the ones I installed ain't opening. Someone advised me to download from the internet. I have tried doing so but couldn't download a meaningful thing. Just wasting my data.

Please, I need a good download link. Any user-friendly photoshop is OK. Thanks.

Go and buy it, if your laptop comes with dvd rom you can easily install it from the disc.

It just #200, some sell for #150,this one is better instead of wasting data.

Try and update your audio driver or increase your ram.
You can close all running apps or start up app to reduce ram usage by pressing Window button +R key and type msconfig, select startup and untick those apps starting up and save.

Have done the msconfig.yet still doing the same. So how can I update my audio driver or increase my ram? Pls

Congrats grin welcome to another adventure... Guess you love adventures. I hope you recover from the excitement.

For win 10,the only issue is that you'll be needing drivers for every goddamn hardware on that laptop.

Remember, as they say= "if the computer ain't the problem, you're the problem"

Advise: do not format to Windows10 yet. I feel if you look long and hard enough at your problem with the current OS, you'll find a solution. [list the issues]

Finally, dis one you are formatting up and dan, me I have Hard disk to sell oo grin oya do and Come and buy (cheap price) grin

Don't mind me, what I just said is that you risk crashing your HDD (risk increases with each format).

So list dem issues, so we see of they are resolvable. Formatting is only a last resort.

Yeah you don't need to install them, for the windows 7 you should have gotten service pack 1,it has the net frames in it.

All the best.
