Re: IBM Ideapad 320S can't boot up issue (urgent)
To be honest, your description of the issue isn't great-- "Can't boot up" is vague.
Does the laptop power up when you press the power button?
Does the LCD backlight turn on?
Does the Lenovo BIOS/UEFI boot logo appear?
Does it try to boot Windows, but fails? Does it boot loop, or does an error message appear?
What are the specs of the laptop?

Re: IBM Ideapad 320S can't boot up issue (urgent)
First of all: your IdeaPad 320S is made by Lenovo (not IBM).
That laptop has a 20V, 45W or 65W (check yours) charger with connector size: 4.0mm*1.7mm round tip.
If needed, you can get a replacement in e.g. Shopee or Lazada or Caroussel.
If you have a Multimeter, check the charger's output connector for 20V, PLUS=inside, GROUND=outside.
Have you tried another wall outlet?

thanks for reply, sorry for misleading, it's lenovo.
i don't have multimeter to test,
but the notebook can be turned on (w/o) adapter plugged-in, but i couldn't charge it up and now battery run out and i'm not sure it's adapter/battery/power jack issue...and unfortunately i don't have other adapter / spare lenovo adatper to try. thanks for helping
