[ P.S., you remove the Bottom Door; you wear an ESD wrist strap, and have it's alligator clip attached to a good ground source; or you risk using the laptop for a Frisbee from now on, or a doorstop.
Average cost is around $3 to $6 ]
This is already resolved. Overheating of the laptop has somehow dislodged the processor and the video card (chip creep). After taking out the heat sink on top of these components and pressed it firmly- and replaced the thermal compound and re-installed the heat sink- it suddenly started to work again.Thanks for the inputs anyway.
