    Hi guys,

    About a month ago I opened my laptop which was already running but the screen didn't turn on. I tapped the Caps Lock key but the respective light on the chassis didn't respond so I think the Windows 7 OS was frozen.

    It's happened intermittently a few times since.

    Any idea what the cause is?

    Thanks.
