Hi, my dv7 2185dx laptop is turning on but the display is all black and the num and caps lock lights are on but do not blink.
This issue occured after i was reflashing the bios while the hdmi cable was connected to the tv. The process halted and the machine was unresponsive for a long time. After 15 minutes of the machine being hang up i tried switching it off using the power button but it had no effect, so i removed the battery.
Now the laptop starts but these lights are turned on without blinking(this code is not documented). I tried using the windows and B keys pressed while turning the laptop on, this makes the lights not to turn.
I also tried the hard reset (pressing the power button for 30 seconds).
I tried removing the cmos battery and no effect
i removed the memories and hard drive and also no effect.
Is there a way to hard reset the gpu?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
