Alienware m18x Screen blackout all of a sudden.. No display... Alienware m18x Intel® Core™ i7 2960XM Dual 2GB GDDR5 AMD Radeon™ HD 6990M - AMD CrossFireX™ 18.4-inch WideFHD 1920 x 1080 WLED 16GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz RAID 0 256GB Solid State Drive & 2ND 512GB Solid State Drive The problem: Laptop wont boot up The symptoms: Upon switching on the laptop, the power LED at the top of the keyboard glows & is permanently ON. The HDD LED glows for about 10 secs and is then off. No display seen on the LCD The fan rotates for a couple of secs after switching ON and switches off as well. No other eminent sound of the laptop running. What I have tried: 1. Connected a secondary monitor and switched the display onto it. Still no display. 2. Removed the HDD and booted. Same symptom exists. 3. Removed memory module, cleaned it, re-inserted into the other slot. Nothing positive. 4. Swapped a different memory module. Nothing changed still. 5. Removed all the memory modules just to test whether the motherboard would sense a nil RAM inserted condition. Yes, it did and beeps were sounded for the same. 6. Tried booting with a bootable windows disc. The sound of the CD-ROM drive spinning was heard but then no booting / display would occur. 7. Pressing F2 to enter into BIOS setup would also not work.(F8 & F11) 8. Tried a hard reset too. 9. Made sure the fan is clean. 10. Tried with the battery and AC power and its all the same with either of the power source.
