Yes, the TV automatically shows which of the HDMI ports that's connected or hooked up to any display source. Given the aforementioned scenario, what could possibly be the diagnosis? And any hopes of repair/resolution?

Try the following options

1. Power ON the system and wait for 50 secs for it to get to Windows logon screen, use Fn + F key depending on the function key for external display

2. If the above option doesn’t work, shutdown the system then open the back cover and disconnect the display connector from the motherboard. Reconnect the HDMI to the Tv and power ON the laptop.

Option 2 will definitely work because that’s the only way you can access BIOS on external display without Fn key. Once you are able to access the laptop on your Tv go to device manager - display and roll back the graphics driver.

It is possible your screen needs replacement too.

If the problem persists after 2nd option, take it to a technician to put another screen or revert back for further technical assistance.

Any advice about how to fix this please??

Good morning,

Sorry about the issue you are facing.

I will be glad to assist you.

Gently disconnect the keyboard flex from the motherboard to see if it will boot properly

If it does, gently tap all the keys on the keyboard one after the other to check if anyone is stuck with debris.

After trying the above options and the issue continues you will need to remove the SSD and replace with a good one then reload the OS.

So many laptops come with inferior SSD which develop issues after months of usage.

Kindly revert back for further assistance.

Thanks.

boss my what got the same problem with the poster above.. he says some I c's inside the mother bot got burned..he fixed it..but the laptop is now slow like a snail..please what do you think is the solution. The hard disk inside is a new one though..someone says I should get SSD that is faster..

Troubleshooting it requires the following:

1. There’s need to check the laptop cooling system to be sure the fan is working well and its heat sink free from debris.
2. Most of the new HDD are inferior and will result to low speed performance. If your laptop supports M.2 SSD you can replace with the original or rather get a sata SSD.
3. Kindly downgrade the laptop to Windows 10 if it is currently running Windows 11 (This option is applicable to Intel Pentium or Core i3 processors with HDD)
4. Upgrade your RAM from 4GB to 8GB

In summary
Points 1 & 2 should be considered and discussed with your IT Engr for fix.

It is possible the new HDD is refurbished and defective.

I can provide further technical support if you reside in Abuja - WhatsApp 08085310379

I finally found a solution that fixed 99% of the issues i mentioned here. What did i do?
I download Media Creation Tool setup file from Microsoft website. Through that, i was able to download the windows 10 installation file which fixed the issues. I had the option keep all of my personal files and installed apps. The only issue left unsolved now is the Bluetooth.


Go to your laptop manufacturer’s website support page, enter the system model and OS and download the Bluetooth driver. You can as well run windows update to update your drivers.

My laptop HP 840 G3 doesn't power on. Whenever I put it to charge, the power button lights up, the charging light blinks between orange and white for some seconds then it goes off before doing this again.

There’s an issue with either the memory nor motherboard.

Good day my engineers, weeks ago, my laptop stopped charging and turning on. I took it to a technician. It now charges but turns off few seconds during booting or after booting. What could be wrong please


You need to be specific on what the technician did to get the laptop working. Did he just replace the charger or worked on the motherboard.

The above will aid us to provide you with solution.

Hello everyone and the technicians in the house.

On this faithful day, I was listening to music on my PC when it suddenly went off, I on it again and it stated "Window repair". After the window repair reached 100% it came up but when I tried to used it again it went off. Since then it would display windows repair, come up after while and shutdown after few minutes. Now the system can't come up, it only displays a white light on the keyboard. What what could be the problem?
It HP 630 AMD. Thanks.

Overheating due to faulty fan or clogged processor vent (heat sink) can cause the problem of booting and going off abruptly. Another thing that can cause it is if water has penetrated into the motherboard without your knowledge. So there are other possible reasons.

You need a hardware engr to troubleshoot the issue and resolve accordingly.

Kindly specify your location to know if there’s a tech expert on this Thread that can assist you.


Thanks.

Pls i have a hdd which i used for my andriod box
Mistakenly i set it has the system storage(it wont work on any other device) instead of external storage


I recently formatted my andriod box
And the box requires me to format d HDD before i can use it as system storage or external storage

The HDD is also not working on my laptop
Pls how do i get the files without formatting the HDD



As per the screenshot you shared.

On the drop down options from right click.

Do the following:

1. Click Change Drive Letter and Path
2. The system will automatically choose a drive letter for you for instance D: or E:
3. Select the Drive Letter
4. Continue the process until it assigns the new Drive Letter

You will find the HDD on This PC once the above process is successfully completed.

Thanks.

My PC has been showing restarting for over an hour now
What do I do?

In cases like this, press and hold the power button until the system goes off completely before releasing the button. Then wait for 15 secs and power it on. It will run some diagnostics repair for the start up and eventually boot.

I have done this also no changes


To fix this error, use the following steps:
Press Enter to clear the message and allow the system to boot to the Windows Desktop.
Shut down the computer, and then inspect and clean the exterior vents to remove dust buildup by blowing air through the vent openings. Dust can accumulate inside the vent openings and around internal cooling components, preventing the removal of heat.

After you remove the dust, turn on the computer. If the error message persists, continue with these steps.

Perform a hard reset. Performing a hard reset can reset recorded thermal values in memory and enable you to use the computer again, even if only for a short time to access and save any important files before service.

In some cases, updating the BIOS might help prevent this error from occurring.

Have the computer serviced to clean internal components and replace the system fan if necessary. Make sure to address the following items when servicing:
Thoroughly remove dust from all internal cooling components.
Make sure wires from the system and CPU fans are connected securely to the motherboard.
Confirm the system fan blades spin correctly, and the fan is not producing loud noises. If not working correctly, replace the system fan.
Remove old thermal compound from integrated circuits and heat sinks and replace with new thermal compound.

Hello Gurus,

My laptop just suddenly stopped coming on. The power light shows when you put it on but it doesn't boot at all on screen. What could be the problem? Hope it's not the motherboard?

Will I be able to retrieve my information?

The laptop is an Acer Aspire E1-531-4818

Also before this issue, the laptop used to be slow despite being 8gb ram. It could pass for a 4/2gb ram laptop and would sometimes hang.


Please advise.

Connect the laptop while it’s ON to your TV using a HDMI cable to know if it will come up. If it does will need to replace the screen.

If it doesn’t come up try the following:
- Unplug the laptop charger from source
- Press and hold down the power button until the power light goes off
- Remove the laptop battery
- Press and hold the power button for 15 secs or more
- Plug back the laptop charger to connect it to source without putting the battery
- Power the laptop and wait to see if the screen comes up


If it does, allow it to boot and then shutdown properly before putting back the battery.

This is the way it has been doing since I bought 2 months ago, I have formatted the system 5 times and installed new window. I'm just tired

Does it boot properly after the formatting? Then how long do you use the PC before it crashes?

The above answers will aid further assistance.

Reinstall the OS, then make sure you delete all volumes including Windows reserved volume of 500MB. Create New Volume and format it before installing Windows. After the installation, check the drivers that installed and use compatible drivers downloaded from manufacturers website to install. Do not use DriverPack or softwares that install unverifiable drivers.

Also turn off Windows update from regedit because it’s likely you are using KMS tool that cause system crash after WindowsAutoUpdate. If the above issue does not work, kindly revert back for further assistance.

I also bought toshiba satellite l550-13c laptop which uses hdd, is it possible change it to ssd from my hp probook 645 g2 laptop

If there’s provision for M.2 on the motherboard, you can. Alternatively, you replace with SATA SSD if you do not want HDD in your PC.
