How come my laptop does not boot a few weeks after dropping it?
by eddhield on August 30, 2012Q: Okay, i dropped my laptop from like 2ft. the screen doesnt work, so i plugged it into a pc monitor. it worked fine for a few wees the it just randomly stopped booting up. it still receives power but doesnt boot up, any ideas?
What happens when it powers on? Do you get the first screen, the BIOS?
It could be a bad HDD that broke when the laptop was dropped. It may not have initially been a problem but the constant spinning of the drives after the drop may have effected the drive.
You may want to have someone certified to repair PC’s look at it.
