My Lenovo notebook, by beloved companion through life, just died. I still cannot believe it. No warning signs - suddenly I just couldn't resume from standby. A reboot (pressing the on/off switch for a few seconds) didn't work. Took out the battery, the RAM even, but to no avail - the notebook is dead. One long beep, two short beeps. No picture.
According to
this thread it's either the system board or the GPU (one of those NVIDIA admitted to be
defective, no less).
The good news is my notebook is still very much within its 3-years warranty period. The bad news is, I won't be as mobile until they send it back to me with a replaced system board.
