I have a Lenovo Yoga 710, and yesterday I did something rather stupid.
I shut my laptop down and used a paperclip to take some stuff out of a USB port, that came out fine but I’d forgotten that the port was an always-on.
I tried to charge my phone using the always on, to see if it would now work. It didn’t. So then I tried to turn on my laptop.
The power light turns on for a few seconds, then turns back off. The keyboard does not light up like it usually does, nothing is displayed on the screen like the Lenovo/Windows loading thing. I don’t think it’s booting up.
If I plug the charger in, the led light comes on so I think that’s okay, at least. I did some googling and found someone’s laptop (mac) had shut down to prevent hardware damage or whatever and I was just wondering, could that be what my laptop has done? It’s quite new, I think only coming out in the last couple of years maybe?
I hope it is that because the other person only had to take out the battery and put it back in, then my only problem will be finding a screwdriver.
It has a warranty so I could use that but I don’t want to tell my parents. Will opening the case void it?
Thanks in advance!
