This is what I was afraid of. I'm going to have to get on with customer support, I'm past the point of being able to return it. And the disc on my current laptop I'm using is degrading bahah When it rains it pours my friends.
I absolutely shouldn't be tinkering around, I know a bit as I built computers when I was younger, and have spent over a decade in installing and removing boards in HVAC, so at least I know what NOT to do lol.
Side note info: I never reinstalled Windows like I should have, I left the pre-installed Windows and just ran with it. I occasionally get the dang blue screen of death even in normal operation with no heavy load at all, PC would restart citing a silly error and I'd go about my day working on the PC. And then this situation. SMH
Last question: These are signs also for a bad CMOS battery potentially correct?
Kind of hail mary I guess I'm going to try it anyway unless that could somehow mess things up. But so my question remains could the dead CMOS make it throw different codes at you to make you insecure in your knowledge? lol
Thank u guys for your answers, because unless customer support can make an exception, it is on me to figure out how to fix it.
