Hey All its been a while siince i posted here...
Anyways....this is the situation.
I have my LG Laptop (specs will be below), and i had it hooked up on my tv (which is what i always do) steaming some media...anyway that was yesterday and it was working 100% fine. Now today, i try to turn it on, it POSTS, then blue screens and hangs at the blue screen for about 5min (i could tell it was hanging because it did not finish "collecting" data) then it restarted, and no POST. Then i trust a hard shutdown, then start up, no logo, no POST, nothing. Tried connecting to another monitor...nothing being outputed. It still has power, as on startup it "reads" the hard drive (the led flashes) and the DVD drive opens/reads and closes. I have tried starting without the battery/with bat/with AC power/like everything...removed the hard drive...not feeling very comfortable about touching the RAM though :/ only because i haven't dealt with laptop hard ware very much...and don't want anything ELSE to go wrong :/
Just wondering if ANYONE knows a solution or AT LEAST the cause...that would be something at least...google has not been very friendly.......
Also...i doubt it's an over heating problem...it HAS been pretty hot and humid here in Melbourne (Australia), but...its worked in alot more heat....also...just touching the laptop...it's stone cold...so...yer...
Help would be sooooo appreciated
