Hello,

I have a PCSpecialist laptop based on Clevo W350ST. Suddenly it has switched off and from that moment on I couldn't boot it anymore. The boot light switches on when I press the button, but nothing happens. The fan is idle. Don't know why but I'm almost sure I read somewhere that if the fan doesn't move the laptop won't boot, as security mechanism, is it possible? If so, do I have to replace the fan?
Tried removing and reinserting RAM but nothing changed, it seems it's something that happens before the system deals with RAM. Any hints?

Thank you in advance,
Giacomo
