My HP EliteBook 840 G5 suddenly won't boot—no display, no beeps, just a power light. It was working fine before. I’ve tried:
- Reseating RAM
- Checking power adapter/battery
- Hard reset (holding power button)
- External monitor (no signal)
Has anyone else faced this? Are there known hardware failures (motherboard, BIOS, etc.)? Any troubleshooting steps I missed? Appreciate any help!
