    The laptop will not post.

    I got blue screens in Windows: pfn_list_corrupt
    So I did my homework, and decided to do a memtest.
    Went into bios to set USB to boot 2nd and hdd to 3rd, saved settings, and laptop will not post.

    I turn it on, all I get is a black screen and nothing else.

    Is there any way to clear the CMOS on this?

    It's either I fix it, and save the time to go to the store and say it doesn't post to get a new unit, or I go to the store and get a new unit.. lol

    Have you tried taking one ram module out and see if your laptop would post?
