Try pressing the power button, resetting the GFCI, checking the outlet, battery, and making sure that all parts of the power supply are plugged in properly. Also check your circuit breaker.

Make sure the laptop computer is receiving power. (Is the cord plugged in correctly?). When the laptop battery is installed in the computer and it is properly plugged in to an AC outlet, check to see if the fuel gauge is showing a charge sign.
