You probably missed a connector somewhere. If it works before you take it apart, it should (usually) works after you put it back.

Good luck before your dad takes the allowance away

cheers ...

"Case snapped open" ... You might want to re-open and check to be sure that when that happened nothing else got disconnected.

Try the "cold" trick. Remove battery and adapter, hold down the power button for about 40 secs. Connect the adapter and try to start it.

Can you get close enough inside to get to the CMOS battery? Remove it, wait for a few minutes and put it back.

we think that the power cord is bad and the bat is dead cause it is not putting out any power

loose cable, incorrectly routed cable, etc. when you put it back together were you missing screws, had too many?

hate to say it, but it sounds like when you opened it up you probably damaged it somehow.
