    Hey everyone,

    I woke up this morning and found out that one of my USB ports didn't supply power to anything connected to it anymore. I shut off my computer and went to class(college student here). But when I tried to turn it back on it didn't respond to the press of the power button. I've tried holding it down for a few seconds then pressing it again but still nothing.

    Is my laptop bricked? Any suggestions? (Sending it back for repair will be my last resort since I need the laptop for my classes.)

    You're not alone, some other users are having the same problem (same time frame too). Mine won't work unless I have it plugged into the charger, except it won't charge past 0%

    Huh that's pretty bizarre. There's no fix yet? I'm trying to avoid sending it in as long as possible, I think my warranty is up so I don't think I'm ready to pay the price of the repair. :(

    Me too, I've been scouring the web for any fixes or updates I've missed. No luck so far.
