My Windows just froze on me, and after a hard reset, now it won't even boot properly. The PC turns on, runs for about five seconds, shuts itself off, then restarts and stays on, but the screen stays totally black. No BIOS, no error messages, nothing. Just blackness.
Here’s what I’ve tried so far: I checked the monitor. When I unplug the cable, it shows "no signal" and displays the Dell logo, so the screen works fine.
- I have three drives: an SSD running Windows 10 and two HDDs for storage. I tried booting with just the SSD—nothing. Then I disconnected the SSD to see if I'd at least get into the BIOS using an HDD—still nothing.
- I've already reseated the GPU, the drives, and the RAM.
Anyone have any clue what's going on? The rig is only about six months old and runs Windows 10.
