Look at the issues on this forum related to motherboard problems.  There is a design defect in Edges that cause the motherboards to fail.  The only solution is a replacement, which is easy enough if you are still under warranty.  If your warranty is expired, I'd suggest you call Lenovo support and talk to a supervisor.  Since this problem is so pervasive, they should fix it even if out of warranty.

So this is a common problem with edges . the laptop is still under warranty but it was bought in canada
and im here in philippines can i still use my warranty service here? or any partner service?

Same here, with an e520. laptop not starting with a battery or when plugged to AC. (no green light power indicator either).  the machine was bought one month ago.

it is best that you people give warranty department a call.
