Problems? See this thread at archive.org.
Probably somebody will know this behavior more familiar or met before.
Dell Studio 1555 PP39L, 2.4GHz, 8G RAM, FHD LCD, SSD + 850GB HDD in DVD slot.
The issue start long time ago, sometime (very rarely) picture freeze, laptop make buzzing sound and I must turned off hardly (5sec hold power button, until laptop shut off completely). After that turn on and it work without sign of issue for a months or weeks. This problem appear mostly when I watched some video, or work in Corel. In last weeks it happen more often. Last time, when it was possible turn on, it take almost 30 sec, until appear first picture from BIOS. but after that, work normally, until freeze again. From that moment it won't turn on at all. When I press power button, keyboard backlight light up, hdd inside start spinning, external mouse and keyboard (and ext. hdd when is plugged into USB port also start spinning) show life. But nothing else. No lcd backlight, no error beeps, nothing else. When I removed RAM modules, it make 2 beeps, when unplug lcd connector, make 8 beeps. So it's obvious some logic on board working. But no picture on screen, neither system start - when I swap system ssd to older standard hdd, by exact "hdd head moving sound" is possible identify, if computer start booting system or not. In this case is no boot up. I removed motherboard and inspect very carefully and thoroughly - no sign on damage, crack, burn or anything unusual. It's pretty mystery. No matter if I start it only with battery, without, both, with any external devices or accesories plugged or not.
So... anybody have idea? I would appreciated if it would lead to resurrection.
