Basically i've gotten this laptop a few years ago from my grandma, it had windows 7, windows 7 kept on getting stuck, so i tried to clean the ssd, now nothing works, some people said its a Kernel issue some said its a capacitor or something like that, can anyone help me make this laptop work again?, i'd cry if i'd see it work atleast the last time. i've been trying to fix it for over 3 years now.

dusty sparrow
#

What do you mean by “cleaned”

solemn trout
#

used diskpart

#

and yes, it does have a partition

dusty sparrow
#

Like zeroed it?

solemn trout
#

i just hit the clean command with diskpart

dusty sparrow
#

Okay so diskpart clean just removes all the partitions

solemn trout
#

hey creeper, thank you, no one really cares about me and the laptop, some people do but, im mostly alone with it.

solemn trout
#

but i tried both a HDD and an SSD

dusty sparrow
#

You added a partition after that? How old is the ssd?

solemn trout
#

not sure

#

but its an 850 evo

#

all ik

#

xd

#

samsung 850 evo

#

but the ssd is probably a few years old

dusty sparrow
#

Hmmm

#

Can you get into the bios fine?

solemn trout
#

ofc

#

a bit glitched cause im using an external screen

#

cause i have completely detached the internal screen.

dusty sparrow
#

Oh dang lol

solemn trout
#

ye

#

hinge broke

#

cause it was old and PLASTIC 😂

dusty sparrow
#

Ofc it did

solemn trout
#

those 2 cables are also bluetooth and wifi

#

😂

dusty sparrow
solemn trout
#

they are connected though

solemn trout
#

you mean the pendrive?

dusty sparrow
#

Yes

solemn trout
#

i've even tried a dvd

#

neither worked

dusty sparrow
#

Did you try different ports?

solemn trout
#

Not yet

#

solemn trout
dusty sparrow
#

Weird

solemn trout
#

trying another port

dusty sparrow
#

Let me know what happens. I’m eating pretty soon but I’ll check back later

solemn trout
#

Okay

#

what time is it for you?

#

cause i gotta go in like less than an hour

#

at 1:29am

#

in my language

#

but its the first place it gets to

#

up on the top

#

it says ,,windows installer" or something like that

dusty sparrow
solemn trout
#

(windows XP)

solemn trout
quick stratus
#

Yo

dusty sparrow
#

lol

quick stratus
#

This is weird

solemn trout
quick stratus
#

I’ve actually had something like this 🤔

solemn trout
#

oh

quick stratus
quick stratus
solemn trout
#

black screen atm

quick stratus
#

As far as we could tell, it wouldn’t allow us to install Windows because its security was set that way.

#

Although we got slightly further at least.

solemn trout
#

noow im getting a black screen

#

even better bruh

solemn trout
quick stratus
#

I’ll bet my five whole cents something got corrupted.

solemn trout
#

could it be that the external screen cant get the installer but the installer is running?

quick stratus
#

Not impossible

solemn trout
#

should i not plug in the internal monitor while its on?

#

is that a bad idea

#

?

quick stratus
#

50/50

solemn trout
#

ehh

#

i'd rather restart the laptop xd

quick stratus
#
