Hi, long time no post. I'm trying to help a friend with their laptop as they said it was working fine but now the screen won't come on. You press the power button, the fan spins up, spins down but nothing appears on screen. The orange wifi light stays on but that's it. Tried attaching it to an external monitor but nothing appears.
I've taken it apart, cleaned the fan, checked all connections and the cpu and that's all fine. I did read about a similar problem with the caps lock light being on and having to cover all exhausts and run the machine for twenty minutes or so to reflow the electronics as they may have cracked. Although I've read that this is just a temporary fix to retrive data. I've got a 2.5 caddy so that's not an issue.
Just wondering if there's anything else I can try or is it pretty much unfixable?
Thanks
