    Hello everybody!
    Im new to this forum but i heard its good.

    So i have Asus G73jh which is not booting. I have this computer for couple of years now and it was going very smooth, i have video recorded how its not booting

    I've tried everything i found to try, hold power button for half minute, try taking out rams and placing them back in, tried taking it apart the whole laptop, and its still not starting. I've posted to Asus on facebook but they said to contact the support and send them but it cost too much.
    Any ideas?

    Regards :)

    Since it's not POSTing, a hardware component has failed. I'm sorry to say that you would need to send it in for service after all. It looks like the board is the culprit, but that's just speculation.

    Could also be a harddrive. Does it POST when you remove the harddrives and the blu-ray?
    Also try without battery.

    Typically you start with the barebones 1 stick of ram and the cpu and if that does not help then it's likely the motherboard.
