Laptop died after Windows defender offline scan
Hi everybody,
My windows started to act weird recently. Seemed like problems with explorer : Elements of menu taskbar were disappearing, folder's elements were disappearing, sound would stop working on occasions etc.
So I run the offline defender scan overnight on my lenovo y700 laptop. ..
Unfortunately my laptop died. When I plug in the charger, the light of power control on the laptop wont go on, but when i plug in an external drive to the USB, it will have the light on.
Do you know what might have happened to my laptop? Did any of it happen to other users?
please help, thanks!
PS sorry for bad label on the post, but the forum didnt let me post my own
- sorry this happened to your laptop. Did you let it charge for a few hours and did you try push the power button for a bit longer?
