o I'm running 8 gigs of ram, GTX 860m with an intel i7-4710mq
I shutdown the computer yesterday, nothing odd going on, went off to bed, woke up this morning and it wont even post - doesn't even get to the Bios or boot options screen. I went ahead and started the trouble shooting and have confirmed now that it will get to the bios, momentarily, and attempt to boot under the following condition only:
Both my SSD and HDD have to be removed.
With that done it will let me boot into bios for a little, before automatically restarting, So I decided to run past bios to boot menu to run diag, and starts to run, shuts down, and then reboots again. At this point I'm about to say its a write off on the mobo, but I just want to be 100% sure so I figured I'd confer with the community. This laptop is about a year old and I've constantly had issues with it stopping charging due to what their techs said was "static electricity build up in the battery, and to disconnect and do a power drain" which I've had to do weekly for the entire time I've owned it. That being said, could this have been a contributing factor?
Right now I've reseated and pasted the processor, took out the networking card, both HD's remain out for now. I've taken the GPU out and now at least the case lights stay on and the computer doesn't seem to reboot anymore but since I have no gpu I cant verify whats going on on screen, I can also have my SSD in with the GPU out and it doesnt seem to keep restarting, but then again... I have no way of telling whats goin on on screen.
I'm still trouble shooting here and there but any ideas that could help would be awesome.
Thanks for any help in advance guys.
Update - I have taken the HD and plugged it in via usb - and it is running post and attempting boot up, but blue screens on windows loading screen. it reboots after. way to fast to even make out the BS message. Then just keeps rebooting form there, getting shorter and shorter between reboots.
