Exclamation Dropped Laptop

Hello,
Recently dropped a Lenovo Laptop and broke the LCD screen(cracked), the laptop power & battery lights come on and blink, but doesn't turn on when power button is pressed (no fans, no hd). Removed the ram cover and noticed the stick of ram was popped out of the slot, put it back in, but it still does not power on.

Any ideas what I should check to see if this laptop is still salvageable? Maybe a loose connection?

If the AC Adapter was plugged in when it was dropped, then possible the DC jack is broke. However, if it will not power up just on the battery, and the battery is charged, then it is something else.

The LCD cable could of come loose, I would take the battery out, have the laptop unplugged, hold the power button in for 30 seconds. Now put the battery back in and see if it powers up.
