Laptop

I have a problem with my laptop with switching on from the button. To switch off no problem. Can I SPRAY IT WITH SOMETHING? Please let me know what I can do.

    I wouldn't, liquid's and electricity go bang.

    If it switches off, the button obviously works, are you holding it down long enough, is it in suspend mode?

    remove the bezel carefully and have a look under if it continues
