Has anybody else had this problem? Any suggestions what to try?

Finally, if all else fails, does anybody recommend some PC tech help? I'll take it the Geek Squad at Best Buy if I must, but I'm not too impressed with and would prefer to avoid it.
With the battery out can you plug in and turn on the computer? I did a search on this problem and it has me stumped unless you got a battery that was old stock.
