Recently had my laptop die on me. On bootup, it gets to the bios screen for just a moment, and before it can finish loading, the screen goes black. I'm trying to decide if this would indicate that my motherboard is damaged or if my processor is damaged. Is the processor necessary for the bios to load, or is everything related to the bios handled by the motherboard?
Also, why are replacement motherboards for a 5 year old laptop so expensive?! D:
