I have a Lenovo Ideapad Y500.
I went into the BIOS and enabled IGFX (just wanted to see if I could get WIDI working) and now it won't even boot to POST. All it does is to power up for less than 2 seconds, then it shuts down. It repeats this process on it's own continously until it at some point manages to not turn off, then it just sits there doing nothing - no screen, no nothing.
Things I've done to try and fix it:
- Pulled out the CMOS battery for 20 minutes (battery and power plug pulled too).
- Disassembled the entire thing and tried to start it, then inserted one component and then tried to start it again. I repeated this process until it was completely assembled.
- Tried holding down the power button, function button and OneKey recovery button.
Nothing works. I'm at the point of sending it in for repairs.
