My Firefly 15.6” G8 stopped booting. When I do a hard reset the caps lock light comes on for a few seconds then turns off. I get orange and white flashing from the charging LED until it’s fully charged. This is the second time it’s happened. It was under warranty the first time but not this time.

I saw someone else in the thread having a similar issue and they just needed to flash the EC, is that what I need to do? My wson tool was supposed to show up today but it’s delayed so I figured I’d at least ask while I wait.

Hi, I’m Wheels! At least that’s what my offline friends call me. I’ve lead an interesting life that came to a professional halt when I got sick. My last job was working for Chase Bank’s IT department in Columbus Ohio (Polaris campus). My role was basically a glorified help desk but I loved it. I was a network associate and knew I was heading out so the desk job was perfect!

Since getting sick I have slowly gotten away from the industry side of things and have learned to enjoy tech as an end user with a bit of curiosity. I don’t stay up-to-date in the minutiae of networking...
