Short update, the new bios does not work. Same (similar) behavior.
Power / keyboard LEDs get on but notching else.
Difference I noticed with the new bios, the CPU/GPU get warm but the fans does not start.
Orig. bios, CPU get warm & fan start after a while , GPU appears to stay off.
Btw, Laptop was working fine last time I used it. (approx. 4 weeks ago)
Don't remember if Win applied a bios update last time I used it, but I don't think so.
Will further check the mainboard ...
