Hello!

I was using my laptop (Acer Swift 1 SF114-32-P3VU) doing some light browsing while it was charging (probably had over 50% charge at the time) when it suddenly died. It went completely dead immedietaly, no shutdown or anything, just immediate black screen and all lights turning off. Now it won’t turn on at all, nor is there a charging light when I plug it in. I have so far tried to:

- Unplug the battery, hold the power button down 30+ sec, plug the charger in and tried to boot

- Unplug the battery, CMOS battery, hold the power button and then trying to charge it

- Unplugging only the CMOS battery, leaving the battery plugged, and charging it

- Trying to boot it without the charger and CMOS battery, but with the battery plugged in

None of this has yielded anything, the laptop is still completely dead, with the charging light not turning on when plugged in. It had been getting hot when charging lately, and the power brick was really hot to the touch the moment the laptop died. Any ideas what might have caused this? Dead motherboard? Blown capacitor? Fried circuitry in the power plug or the PSU?
