Essentially my MacBook Pro crashed while I was opening QuickTime not too long ago and ever since I have not been able to turn it back on.

If I press the button immediately after plugging in the adapter it will rapidly blink the first LED and then any presses afterwards will flash all eight LED’s. Other than that nothing else appears to work. I’ve taken apart the entire computer and there aren’t any obvious signs of damage.
