Hey everyone, I accidentally dropped my Lenovo IdeaPad and it landed right on the power button, which is now stuck and won't press down at all. To make matters worse, it completely died, but it used to turn on if I spammed the tab key before the drop. I haven't had a chance to plug it in yet. I'm looking for any suggestions to get it to turn on, since I'm not at home right now. Here are the specs for reference: 12GB RAM, 1.6TB total storage (639GB onboard + 1TB cloud), Intel Celeron, and WiFi-6. Thanks for any help!

If you're going to take it apart, make sure everything is back in its original position before closing it up again. Just keep in mind, a lot could have gone wrong inside, so if you’re not handy, a repair shop is the way to go.
You might need to open it up and push the power button back into place. There are lots of videos online that can guide you through that process if you're comfortable. Just be careful!
Your best bet is either to take it apart and try to pop the button back out or just take it to a repair shop. If you're unsure about dismantling it, definitely go for professional help.
Is there really no other option? I'm willing to try anything at this point!
