Hello openSUSers,
First of all this post could be classified as Out-of-topic since it is not related upon operating system issues but just on hardware or possibly system firmware, but I would like to try if somebody could provide useful suggestions regarding a very strange problem I am facing out on my Lenovo G470 notebook.
Whenever I try to boot the machine after it was powered off since several hours, it fails repeatedly, I see just the power-on and battery led on, no screen bios information at all nor hdd activity, just a blank screen.
By insisting several times to power on, then suddenly it boots showing bios menu and finally the operating system went initialized (Windows 7 in this case).
Sometimes happens that after few minutes the system shut-down spontaneously and reboot itself but normally after this random behaviour it stays on stable and working perfectly until I power-off.
I already opened a maintenance ticket with Lenovo and I am ready to deliver my notebook to authorized center for repair but I would like to know if somebody could guess which kind of failure may be causing this issue.
Thanks.
Regards,
I have just recently experience this behavior with my laptop (a HP Pavilion g6) and I had to RMA for MOBO replacement. Best Regards -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
