Hi,

After the system turns on, do you get a black screen right away or do you see the Alienware loading screen?

If you do, run an ePSA diagnostic to check for hardware damage.

If you don't, you might be experiencing a No Post problem. Try pressing the CAPS LOCK key to check if the keyboard is responding and connect an external monitor to confirm it's not a video problem. Then follow the troubleshooting steps on this article and let me know the results.
