Didn't work, its probably the motherboard which is broken!
I'm all out of things to try!
Just awaiting a reply from pcspecialist support which is very slow!
Updated my signature to include my laptop!
Yeah I think your correct as the bios file is named P15xSM-A which i'm yet to update.
Still doesn't work, looks like someone else has had this problem.

I think I might but then again, i'll have to pay to send it and then pay for any repairs. I have three USB ports on the left of the laptop, i'm just wondering if it would be worth it, inconvenience of sending laptop away!
I'll speak to the support team if they ever email me back!
Thanks for your help!

I can't seem to get the USB stick to boot up as per the instructions for the bios update.
I'll just live without the USB 2.0 port.
