ROG G18 G814JI (G18 2023 - RTX 4070)
I was browsing the net on it yesterday evening, plugged in, no heavy load, the fans weren't even spinning, and suddenly- black screen, orange battery light blinking. Keyboard unresponsive.
I didn't update anything recently, didn't update the BIOS, didn't connect anything new to it. After not using it for a couple of days just turned it on, worked for a couple of hours and this happened.
When I try to turn it on now, plugged in or just battery - the keyboard keys red animation shows up, then the keyboard lighting switches to my regular, and that's it.
Only the power and battery lights are on, the disk activity light doesn't blink, no boot, black screen, all I can do is hold the power button to turn it off.
What kind of troubleshooting can I do myself before sending it in?
