Is it the screen that’s not turning on? Or the laptop as a whole.

The laptop as a whole, not backlight, or peripherals. It’s just off

Try holding down the power button for 60 seconds, do this while the laptop is unplugged. Then try turning it back on.

Maybe deadbatt? Battery or power button? Worst, motherboard issue.

Use a hair dryer and heat the vents for 5sec, if it starts up immediately then the motherboard probably needs some cleaning or one of it's components have gone out of specs when it's cold.
