Well, it just HAD to happen to me!!
Got my Vista upgrade pack from ASUS (make of my laptop) with a nice BIOS update disc too... to be done before installing Vista... Unexpected, i thought they would just send me Vista... Obviously i felt safe so i updated the BIOS as instructed - and for once i really did follow ALL the instructions, but....
... after the BIOS update, and after re-booting, to my surprise, the laptop screen just wouldn't come on. and it still doesn't. I can hear the system booting up fine and enter windows, but the screen is just blank.
I'm usually quite good at fixing things but this time i've been beaten. I can't see anything - not even DOS screens - so there is just nothing i can do. I've tried making boot discs with flash bios updates but it just won't do...
Any ideas before i send the laptop off to be repaired - or i just go down to a shop and pay to do it...?
Thanks guys!
Oh and... Hey guys!
