Just a happy ending to this issue & thread... https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=104086
The laptop had BIOS 210 on it, I updated it to 303, and the black screen upon restart is fixed!! The seat of my pants from the original post just felt it was a firmware issue....it's now cured, and also learned the true make of this goofy laptop.
It's always great when I can ask my own forum for assistance, you fellas are the best!
I also attached the BIOS v303 to this thread incase anyone down the road runs into this....since the 'technopat' site appears to be defunct.
