Laptop power button rarely works

    Packard Bell EasyNote TJ65
    Windows 7

    The button requires 4-10 minutes of randomly pressing before it turns on.

    Besides getting the button fixed, is there another way to turn on the laptop?

    Was wondering whether you can reconfigure a button on the keyboard to power up the laptop??

    Thanks in advance for any help!!

    You need to get the Power Button Cover replaced
    A common problem on these laptops
