I have a ASUS K73SV. Today I wanted to install windows on it to dual boot with linux. When I changed the boot order in the bios to my USB Bootable, which also included the linux iso which worked perfectly fine 30min earlier, the bios just froze and was stuck. I couldn't see any way other than to hold down the power button. Now it has a permanent black screen. I cant even reach the bios the screen is always black. No logo, no error, nothing. I removed the cmos battery to reset the bios with no luck... I can tell that its doing something because if I stick in my LINUX drive (it should boot into it I assume?) the CPU & GPU gets warm (no overheating, just common usage temperature) as well as the power light is on and the light that has the light bulb as an icon. Did I brick it? No I don't care if its already 12 Years old and I should just buy a new laptop...
