Ey mates, I've got a Lenovo Ideapad N680 here that was working perfectly, cared for like a golden ingot, that suddenly only turns on the fan and the powerlight. I disassembled it, checked everything, it's all in order. I can turn it on with the power button, the fan, HDD, and DVD ROM turn on but nothing on the screen and hitting Numlock doesn't toggle the light. If I hold the power button, it turns off as expected. Please help.

I've tried removing the HDD and RAM cards hoping for something else to happen (a beep code, for example) but no luck.

I hooked up an external display but doesn't seem to do anything. Not like I remember if there's a button to press in the boot menu anyways.

Alright listen up folks

I will enlist help from you all if you would help find me a 2 in 1 ultrabook option. I will list below some characteristics I am looking for and what I don't want

1) Has to be light weight 4 lbs or less
2) Has to have battery life exceeding 6 hours
3) Has to be non detachable
4) Is not a Surface Pro (I already had one, albeit I liked it, but I don't want another)
5) Either 11 inches up to 14 inches screen size
6) Doesn't look like an autistic 12 year old picked out the colors and design

My budget I am aiming for is around the 400 starting point and to not exceed 900-1000, ideally I'd like to median somewhere in the 600-800 dollar range.

look into ultrabooks, like ASUS' zenbooks or dell's XPS series

so, before my computer crashed and died (which afterwards i got back in perfect condition) for a second time, i had GTA V installed (through discs) and everything was fine and happy

now, i'm trying to install GTA V once again with disc 1, and when it does go in i get the usual disc-loading icon by my mouse, but nothing at all happens. i looked on the internet, not much help other than what i've already tried

so then i tried to do it manually, but there's no files at all in the DVD drive. i cleaned the disc, made sure there was no physical damage, checked my drivers for updates and all. i also checked their properties to make sure that their statuses were fine, and even tried restarting the computer just to make sure, and i've obviously got internet connection if that matters

i don't get at all why this wouldn't be working, since it seems the only reported problems with GTA V installation discs have to do with console versions. does anybody know any possible reasons/solutions for this?
