I got a new laptop for christmas and when my brother-in-law was updating it for me it turned off (I havent had details and he avoids the question!) and it turns on goes to the ASUS start screen then goes black and turns off again. It has been doing for 5 or 6 hours now and i have tried every thing that i have been reading on these threads but nothing has worked. If i cant get it fixed soon dad will be getting rid of it and i will not be able to get a new one until next year! Please help if you can. I can get on to the aptio setup utility screen but dont know where to go from there if that will help.
