"Nothing happens except light turns on for 15 secs then fades away."

Which light? Sleep light?

Try a hard reset. Disconnect the battery and power adapter. Press the power button for 1 minute. Let the computer sit for 5 minutes, Reconnect and try to start up.

No? - Go through the same procedure and try to start without the battery connected.


"Replaced screen and HDD now computer wont start."

Disconnect inverter cable and LVDS cable and HD cable from the logic board and try a start up.

Reconnect each. Post back.
