PSP GO N1001 Not Wanting To Turn On

Howdy, I recently found my old psp go that hasn't been turned on in years. I charged the battery to full and attempted to turn it on afterward. However, only the green power light comes on and then turns off with no display or sound. So I tried the power switch and the home button trick by holding both on and nothinghappenedd. I also tried the holding down the home button, square, select, start and power and this time the screen went from black to gray but then turns back off with all of the lights (power, wifi and bluetooth) flicker for a second. I've gotten a new battery and tried all the previous methods, but still nothing. I'm completely dumbfounded at this point and would like to see if anybody had any clues on what it could be.

Update: Okay, so I kept repeating the start, select, square, and triangle method, and now it'll turn on for a brief second, showing the Sony entertainment logo with sound and then immediately shut off. So there's that.
