describes an Everex VA2000T that powers on but does not continue and whose “chipset” gets very hot. Several replies already suggested warranty/service and basic fan checks from , , , and . The short guide below avoids repeating those high-level suggestions and instead lists safe, focused diagnostics you can run (only if the machine is out of warranty and you are comfortable with basic electronics).

Try these non-destructive checks first (power off and remove AC/battery between steps):

  1. Visual inspection: look for bulging capacitors, burn marks, or discoloration near the heated chip and the DC jack. A magnifier helps.
  2. AC adapter and jack: verify adapter output with a multimeter (matches the adapter label) and watch for power drop when wiggling the DC connector.
  3. POST signs: power on with AC only (battery out) and note fan spin, LED blink patterns, HDD LED, and any beep codes—record exact patterns. Those signals narrow the fault.
  4. Removable modules: reseat RAM and try one stick in different slots; reseat the CMOS battery for a reset. These are low-risk and often reveal memory/BIOS issues.
  5. Clean heat path: if you remove the heatsink, clean old thermal compound, inspect the pad/contact, and reapply proper thermal paste only if confident.

Notes on an immediately hot chipset: rapid heating before POST usually points to a board-level fault (power-rail overload, shorted device, or poor thermal contact). Measuring board voltages or probing power rails can help but should only be done by someone comfortable with a multimeter—unsafe probing can cause more damage.

If none of the above yields progress, document the adapter voltage, LED/beep behavior, photos of any damaged parts, and seek a reputable board-level repair shop. Avoid DIY “reflow” or extensive board surgery unless you have professional equipment—those are often temporary fixes. If still under warranty, stop and use official service.

Time to contact your vendor for warranty support...

I have had that happen when all else fails think "bots" I purchased a ip powered fan that recirculates the air cooling. The first time it happened virus protection was the solution

It happens due to two reasons they are:
1. Your power fan is not working
2. Any of the IC(integrated circuit) got damaged or not working properly.

So you need to take your laptop to the service center.

If it's under warranty, let them take care of it.

If it's not, does the fan work? Has the laptop randomly shut off before?

Also, do you mean when you turn on it won't load into Windows?

Did you hear the fan spin. Might be a hard disk failure or an overheating issus or other tons of problem. Use a spare hard disk and see whether it works. Change the chipset as well.
