My lab top power won't turn on

I have HP ZT3000 for little over 3 years now. I don't know what happen
now it does not want to power up first green light come on and then switching over to red light and stay blinking. First I thought I was a power jack problem, I borrow power dock from my friend and try it out, It still did the same nothing but blinking red ligth. Please help. Thanks a whole bunch.

sounds like hardware failure, check to make sure your ram is securely inserted into the slots.

but i don't think that could be it, your motherboard or w/e could be dead your laptop might be a paper weight now.

Try taking the battery out and pluging in the laptop, will it power up then ?
