My lad had same issue with, IIRC, a Lenovo. It fell on the floor after being left on a chair arm in his Uni shared house. Tests with a multimeter showed the PSU giving nil volts so it was replaced but laptop would still not take charge.
At that point I took it to a professional who, after being initially optimistic of prospect of repair discoverd impact had killed joints on MoBo and thing was beyond economic repair.
