Recently, my laptop's battery dropped to 10%. After plugging it in and turning it off, it wouldn't power back on—only the keyboard light stayed lit. I attempted these steps: 1) Held the power button for 10 seconds. 2) Disconnected the battery and tried to restart. Once, after leaving it on for 2 hours, it finally booted up, though not as smoothly as before. Even after a restart, the issue repeated.
Which laptop are you looking for? I can provide details on specifications, age, and whether entering the BIOS is quick or requires time.
The laptop model is Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3. It features an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H processor, a Nvidia GTX 1650 4GB graphics card, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD storage. This device is three years old. I’m having trouble accessing the BIOS because it freezes into a black screen. Once, I managed to boot into the desktop after waiting two to three hours in the black state. Update: After restarting, it briefly started for a moment before crashing again with the same black screen. (Before restarting, I reinserted the SSD and tried once more.)
