Zbook G3 15
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So this happens sometimes when I power on Zbook G3 15:

BIOS wont load, screen stays black, fans start blasting full speed.

I even disconnected the battery incase it was bad, but it still happens sometimes.

When I unplug the power and boot again, BIOS loads normally and I the computer works.

 

The latest BIOS version is installed.

This fault was caused by an external USB device (2 slot usb3.0 hard-drive bay). When connected to any usb port the fault was there. When removed the laptop boots succesfully.
