@omalinabubaz one of the first thing you will have to do is to replace the CMOS (RTC) battery. Your computer may not work without it. Next pull the RAM and clean the connectors with a pencil eraser. Clean it gently so as not to damage the pins. Next, connect an external monitor to see if that displays anything. If that does not show any images after your computer turns on, it could be that your processor has failed or you have a damaged motherboard.
To work on your computer, use the Compaq Evo Notebook N1000v Maintenance And Service Guide

@omalinabubaz you are not giving us enough information here. What have you checked and what does your computer do? does it show that it has power? Does it even turn on? You are our eyes and ears. Tell us everything you have done and checked. Tell us what you see and hear!
