Last night I was downloading an update to my drivers on my Dell inspiron. The update froze so I left it overnight. When nothing changed I did a hard restart hoping to be able to correct the faulty update and set everything right again.
Unbeknownst to me, after restarting my computer I would find myself with a very expensive paperweight.
My laptop no longer powers on, I can’t seem to get it onto recovery mode, safe mode, or even bios- and have tried multiple key commands for each.
I’ve disconnected and reconnected the battery, tried killing the battery too but nothing changed.
I tried a Dell OS recovery key through USB, and that changed nothing.
I tried connecting to HDMI to see of it was a screen malfunction to know avail.
I did run a hardware diagnostic which was both responsive and came back clean so I believe this is caused by a corrupted Driver or something along those lines as I’ve rarely had any sort pf problems with this computer.
Currently I can’t do anything with the laptop, and the only clues that the computer work at all is the keyboard briefly lighting up when I try to power cycle it, and the charging status light which works perfectly like normal.
Any assistance of any kind would be so greatly appreciated, as I’m grasping at straws here and need this computer for work.
