Ok, first of all, i'll describe situation-i changed BIOS settings, but only from UEFI to legacy, saved, restart laptop, than it showed i cant boot my system, some file is missing, but i planed to install new system, so i didn't care, restarted to enter to BIOS again so i can change boot devices but just black screen, no beeps for some error or something and cant do anything since then...
I tried to reset BIOS, nothing, changed battery, still nothing, checked RAM, it is good, connect it on tv, nothing, pressed fn+f5 and fn+f6, still nothing
Tried all solutions that i could find, except recovery BIOS, because i dont have another pc or laptop...
I believe it's BIOS problem, cause everything worked ok before i changed from UEFI to legacy...
When i press power key, i see hdd led blink on one second, and after that nothing, but i hear fan and even hdd, but very quiet, power led is on
Maybe if someone could provide me files, maybe i could try recovery BIOS by put that files on usb with phone

If there are internal sounds it may well not be the BIOS but a secondary problem with the display. Since you said nothing shows on it.

Try this...

  1. Turn the laptop off (not sleep or hibernate but off).
  2. Connect an external monitor to the laptop.
  3. Turn on the external monitor.
  4. Turn on the laptop.

NOTE: You may have to press an "external monitor" button. Could be the f4 button or a button with two monitors on it, for the external monitor to work.

If you can see fine on the external monitor, then your attached display, or the ribbon cable that connects it, are your problem.

If you can't see on the external monitor at all, or the problem occurs on the external monitor as well, then it is probably the graphics card/GPU...

You may also want to try hitting CTRL + SHIFT + WIN + B to try and reset your graphics driver as another possible fix.
