Hi Sandy9095,
I am sorry about the situation; try releasing the static power and run the hardware diagnostics. Follow the steps below.
Switch off the system; remove the battery, ac adapter and the power cable. Press and hold down the power button for thirty seconds to drain any excess static power. Press the FN + Power which will initiate the hardware diagnostics. Let us know if there is any error code listed
Also send me the system service tag or express service code through a private chat, so that I can help you further.
Click on my username select start a private conversation and send me the details.

Hi Sandy9095,
Please check if the system is booting into windows only with one memory, refer to the user manual in the link below for removing and reseating of memory.

In case the system is not booting into windows try swapping the memory and check if the system is booting, after this step if the issue persists remove the hard drive and check if the system is starting.
You can refer to the above link for removing and reseating the hard drive.
