So, My laptop was having an issue that when I tried to restart it, it would just shut down, and I thought it was an out-dated bios, so I went ahead and got a bios from the samsung website, flashed, and tried to restart with no luck.
I first get the splash screen with the options to enter setup or recovery. a) I let it be, splash screen disappears, computer shuts down. b) I try to enter recovery and the computer shuts down. c) I can get to bios, tried changing the boot priority, tried booting from ODD, from usb drive, HDD, same result. I tried tearing the computer apart to disconnect the CMOS battery, tried removing each of the two individual rams.
I can only think there´s a problem with: motherboard, processor, or bios.
Any suggestion on how I can get this problem dealt with?
Computer: Samsung NP-QX411-W01US

battery definitely not working, other than what I wrote, was working perfectly.
Thanks!
