Unable to power up PowerBook after OS re-install interrupted.

Re-Installing Monterey via recovery mode, the screen froze after entering the WiFi password. I switched off the laptop (MacBook PRO 13” retina pre-2015) and now it won’t power up again. Completely dead. Any suggestions please?

Have you tried the Reset the SMC of your Mac ?


If still no luck >>


Then have a few suggestions ;


1 - Have the computer evaluated by the Professionals who have the Special Hardware Software and Expertise to diagnose the issue and offer possible solutions


2 - Make an Appointment at the Apple Genius Bar and have them evaluate the computer
