Hello,
Yesterday my new HP Pavilion HP Pavilion dv9760ez Notebook did not want to boot at all after a kind of freeze that happened when I disabled the touchpad. The keyboard and the mouse were blocked. After pressing the on/off switch openSuse 10.3 shut down but finally did not switch off the computer.
When switching the computer on again I could hear the disk and the fan but the screen remained black, not even the BIOS/HP logo appeared.
In that case, given a computer which you KNOW was working before, and which fails to execute the same power-on-self-test code in the BIOS that it's been running since the day you got it, what makes you think that it's suddenly the BIOS that failed, and not the hardware? --
The parts you clipped indicated that upon a forced power off it began to work again and he found information on the net about a known bios bug for which there was a bios update. Trim your posts, but read them before you trim them. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
