Hey Ravi,

Pull the power and any other cable. Take the battery out and hold the power button for at least 15 seconds.

Put the battery back in then plug the charging cable back in. Try restarting the laptop like normal.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the advice, unfortunately, this did not work, someone who had a similar problem said it was because the battery they used had old firmware so need to a new version which might the case for me as well.

Try the original battery? you might have broken the board while unplugging it?
