so uh.... my computer doesn't start anymore.
it worked fine an hour ago. now, dead.
at first, it would appear to boot, the BIOS would show up, then it would get stuck at a single blinking cursor in the black.
shut it down via long press, unplugged it and plugged it back in.
now there is a single green LED on the mainboard, but when i press the start button, nothing happens.
cleaned the insides with a vacuum, nothing.
dead.
what do I do?
