Don't worry mate! It sometimes happens due to the power management of the laptop. I've had a lot of trouble with blinking leds while I was working with the NBFC. So here's what you have to do: Restart laptop -> When RoG Logo appears press&hold the power button for like 10secs (during the time you will see the battery led going off and then back on ) -> then just start your laptop and you'll see that everything works just fine.

JESUS CHRIST ! Sorry.
It works!
How the ***?
Man I've spent the whole day on the internet and on the phone with customer service and I couldn't find a solution.
Thank you soooo much ! :))
No need to remove the battery anymore. I'll just be more careful about my game settings in the future... lesson learned:))

If the battery is toast it should still work plugged in unless the battery is shorted which can load down the power adaptor rendering the machine useless.
Just keep in mind that is ASUS can replace the battery, then so can you. Its just not as easy as in the past.
HERE is a tear down video of a G751 that shows where the battery is. Should not be too difficult to get it out. Havent had to replace it myself and as much as I like the fellow members Im not pulling my machine apart again just to see how the batter comes out. The video shows how to get to it and anyone who is capable enough to change the battery should be able to figure it out from there. Just a couple of screws and one connector I believe, maybe some double sided tape.
There are plenty of places to source them, just do a search. OEM batteries go for around $130 and generic for $75, I always pay the extra to get the OEM just so I dont have issues with the battery being read by the system, happens a lot!
Blinking orange usually denotes the battery is too hot, or at least thats what its supposed to mean. Not always the case. Bad drivers can do the same thing.
Alternating green/orange means there is something wrong with the charging system, but again this can be false.
First thing is to double check your power adapter is working, should be getting ~19-20VDC out of it. If that is good then move on to looking closer at the battery. The normal thing to do is to remove the battery and as much of a PITA as I know its going to be I would still recommend following the procedure to save yourself from the expense of a new battery if not needed.
Shut down, remove power cord, remove battery, reinstall power cord, start without battery, go into device manager and delete everything there under the battery heading. Reboot (still with no battery) shutdown, reinstall battery and start up again. Go into device manager and check battery listings. If still flashing orange and your power adapter is good then its time for a new battery.
The one thing that concerns me it the "sound it made". Could you be a little more descriptive? Popping, hissing? Did the sound happen then the light, at the same time, or the light then the sound?
