If the laptop runs fine off the battery but not off the AC adapter, then your problem is most likely either the adapter itself or the motherboard. The adapter is a much cheaper option (and easier to replace) so a good first step is to try a new adapter and see if that fixes the problem.

If it still won't power on, you may have a bad motherboard, in which case it might be cheaper to get a new laptop than have the motherboard repaired or replaced.
