Hi,
So I bought the Laptop mentioned in the title a few month ago and must say that it’s a really great machine, up to all tasks until today:
While editing a textfile, the screen suddenly turned black. I had to shut it down via holding the power button cause no other input would work. When trying to restart, the screen remained black, after a while the fans would spool up and another short while later, it shut down on its own.
So I pull the cabel and battery and let everything sit for a while, in that time I found that FN+D is the CMOS-Reset shortcut for clevos, so I figured I’ll try that, but didn’t even get that far...
Put the power supply back on and hit the power switch, LEDs in front light up one last time and that’s it. No sign of life, with or without battery. Pressing the power button does nothing, not even the charge indicator LED lights up when plugging in the powercord...
Now I assume the Mainboard is fried, a real bummer after just a few month...Should still be covered by the warranty and I really hope the HDs are fine so I won’t encounter a data loss from this mess...just wanted to hear ya‘ll thoughts, anyone had something similar happen?
EDIT: I ran the battery all the way empty earlier, but I surely doubt that this would cause such a problem...
