XPS 1640 not powering on

Hi

I was using my computer, left it for an hour and when I got back it was as dead as a dodo!!

Have tried turning it on in the regular manner, by removing the battery and turning it on with AC only, and tried doing the 30 second thing - nothing, nix, zip!!

AC adapter work on another computer, When I plug the AC adapter into the machine the blue light stays on. 

What could it be? 

I have removed the HD and it works in a friends XPS so managed to do a backup!! However whilst undertaking this task I found that the fan was not connected!! and so has probably never been. I knew the XPS runs hot but perhaps it has been running WAY too hot.

Anyway any suggestions will be gratefully recieved.
