So yesterday I was just gaming a bit when suddenly I got a weird audio glitch and my laptop got very slow. I thought it was just the game (Skyrim btw) because it can be a bit buggy. A minute later I got a BSOD saying driver_irql_not_less_or_equal. It gathered some data and restarted my laptop. After the restart the laptop was very slow and buggy. For example it disconnected from wifi every 30 or so seconds. I searched the internet and forums to see what the problem was but I was unable to find anything. Then suddenly the issue seemed to have resolved itself. I figured the only way to see if it was truly fixed was to play Skyrim again. Once ingame nothing had changed. I got the audio glitch again and everything was very VERY slow.

 

I then got a second BSOD saying critical process died. It started gathering data and at 10% it just stopped. I figured I'd let it do its thing and I went to bed as it was already quite late. This morning I woke up only to find it stuck at 10%. I googled a bit and eventually decided to turn my laptop off and perform a hard reboot. However now I've turned my laptop off and whenever I turn it on again the HD starts for a second or so then nothing, no noise no screen. Nothing.

 

At this point I've tried just about everything, hard reboot, going into BIOS, but whatever I do nothing happens. The only thing I haven't tried yet is removing the battery and memory as there are no buttons to remove this and I fear I might void the warranty. I bought it recently (4 months ago) and haven't taken a backup because there wasn't anything that important on it. I'm considering to just go to a repair shop but I kinda need my laptop for school so that's a last resort for me.

Any and all help would be much appreciated!!

Btw I've also hooked up my laptop to a tv with an HDMI-cable and that didn't do anything either
