          Problem

          This is an LG edge LED lit LCD Display. The LEDs are on the bottom edge of the display. There are 2 bars (left and right) Each bar has many LEDs and a 6 pin connector. Each pin drive several LEDs thus is the highest current flow / heat junction. The weak lead free solder gradually fails with thermal expansion/contraction cycling and increases resistance. PSU will compensate up to a point, then when the current is too high, PSU just shut down the backlight causing a dark display. I have even seen one which the connector just fell off as solder points became completely detached....

          Need BIOS for HP Pavilion 15-n058sr recovery - Caps Lock blinking twice
          by sssssssssssssss
          Hello everyone,

          I'm dealing with a classic BIOS corruption issue on an HP Pavilion 15-n058sr and hoping someone here might have the original BIOS file or point me in the right direction.

          Symptoms:
          • Laptop powers on but no display at all (completely black screen)
          • Caps Lock blinks twice with a pause, then repeats continuously
          • F12 LED stays on permanently
          • No POST, no boot sequence, nothing on screen

          Based on HP diagnostic codes, the 2-blink Caps Lock pattern indicates BIOS corruption/failure.

          What I've tried:
          • Hardware reset (battery removal, power
          ...
