    Try with an external keyboard.

        Does it have any key, like assist, in order to get to recovery options? Try to power the laptop on from that button. Newer models due to UEFI require this. It won't allow you to press any key during the windows start up.

          You can't enter the BIOS/UEFI on a Windows 8 machine until has been shut down properly, it's just in sleep/hibernation mode otherwise.
          The shift key needs pressing whilst you click shutdown. Then the BIOS/UEFI can be entered.

                    🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
                    by macabook
                    Hello everyone,

                    I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
                    🧩 Initial Issue
                    • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
                    • External display (HDMI) shows
                    ...

                    I need a BIOS dump for the Samsung S49CG934SU monitor
                    by Habble7
                    The Samsung S49CG934SU monitor does not power on - no LED indicator activity and no response to power button. However, when 21V power is connected, it immediately draws 0.8A of current with no display output. The motherboard processor gets warm, and there is continuous reading activity from the W25Q128BV BIOS chip.

                    Suspected Cause:
                    I suspect the BIOS may have been corrupted during a power interruption while updating the firmware. The official website provides firmware updates, but they can only be installed via USB flash drive.

                    Troubleshooting Attempts:

                    [Problem/ Request] Bricked TongFang GK7MRFR BIOS
                    by cr4zychriss
                    Hello everyone,
                    I am requesting urgent assistance to unbrick my laptop, a rebranded TongFang GK7MRFR chassis. The laptop is completely dead following a faulty in-OS EC flash attempt.
                    I have successfully used a CH341A programmer and can read/write/verify both flash chips, but using my backups/extractions has failed to restore power. The root cause is likely a corrupted Intel Management Engine (ME) region or an incompatible EC/BIOS pairing. System & Hardware Details

                    NT955XED (Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro - 15.6) BIOS dump file Request
                    by Citymin
                    Hi all,

                    My Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro 15.6-inch laptop has no display and won't boot.
                    The charging red LED lights up, but the charging screen doesn't show any indication.
                    When I press the power button, the blue LED cycles on and off three times, then the screen doesn't turn on, and the device won't boot.
                    (I've tried removing the battery and resetting the device, but the issue persists.)

                    NoteBook Model name : Samsung NT955XED-KK51G(Galaxy book2 pro, i5-1240p, 15.6inch AMOLED)

                    ASUS Zenbook Pro Duo UX8402ZA BIOS
                    by pirati
                    Hello everyone,

                    I recently bought a non-working Asus Zenbook Pro Duo OLED UX8402ZA that was listed for parts only. The seller mentioned that it had no display output but that the charging lights worked.

                    When the laptop arrived (without a charger and SSD), I connected a charger and confirmed with a multimeter that it was charging the battery. However, when I tried to power it on, only the backlight of the secondary display came on. There was no image, and it didn’t boot into the BIOS.

                    I decided to try flashing a new BIOS, but since I didn’t want to desolder...
