The gateway M-6333/SA1/M Series is a laptop we're seeing more and more of. It's about a couple of years old and off the factory gateway one year warranty.
The customer reported the laptop simply doesn't power on. When plugged in the laptop showed no signs of life and wouldn't power up. When I got it disassembled the jack area had some solder already added to it by the customer.
Like every repair we do, the jack needs to be de-soldered and replaced. After replacing the jack the laptop powered up at the board level. After getting it put back together the laptop powers on and charges the battery.
