How to diagnose the cause of a blank laptop screen?

Question

System administration

Hello, I have an Acer Nitro V15 Black Edition laptop and there is the following problem: when you turn it on, you hear the sound of the hard drive starting up, the backlight turns on, and then nothing ... The screen does not show anything at all, no BIOS loading, no manufacturer logos, nothing. At the same time, locking clicks appear in the right speaker, and then periodic puffing. Moreover, if you wait a few hours, then everything starts up normally and works until some kind of glitch occurs, the system does not freeze and after a reboot everything starts again. In general, any cold start or reboot leads to this problem. How to diagnose the cause? Maybe there is an opportunity to run it in at least some mode in order to understand what exactly the problem is (maybe somewhere at the level of graphics drivers in the OS)?
Thank you for attention.

Answer 1

The hard drive is dying. It's easy to check - remove it and see your logos and so on.

Answer 2

Most likely, there was overheating and a dump of the video chip.
If you want to fix it yourself - the keyword "Reballing" for Google.
