My laptop has run into a weird issue. When I press the power button, the display won't turn on at all, and the blue power LED light starts blinking very slowly (3 seconds on, 3 seconds off). It keeps on blinking until I force shut down the power via battery pin on the back of the laptop. Even when I plug in the charger, the charging indicator LED will also blink in sync with the power LED when I turn on the laptop. I've tried holding the battery pin for 30+ seconds, still no improvement. Model is Acer Aspire 3 A315-41 with AMD Ryzen 5 2500U processor and 4 GB RAM. Any help would be appreciated.

    I managed to turn on my laptop finally. I pressed the battery pin for 30 seconds, then pressed the power button for 30 seconds, and soon as I left the power button the LED blinked one more time, and laptop booted up normally. Did multiple recycles of shutting down and booting up to check, it works normally now.
