sup /g/

so my thinkpad T420 randomly crapped out on my flight out to DEFCON and won't power on again

>battery was pretty old but still working
>power adapter is still putting out 20.1V just fine
>no buttons do shit, no LEDs or anything light up
>tried pulling CMOS battery+main battery and hitting power button 10 times, then holding 30 sec... still nothing

So what's next? New mobo?
