    Goddammit. The thing literally was working just earlier today. I put it to sleep for a while to eat, then next time I press the power to wake it up, the screen stays blink and only two of the six lights are on.

    GODDAMMIT.

    Force shutdown by holding power button, then turn back on?

    If that works, get a Google account and transfer/copy notes to Drive

    Tried force shut down, etc. Doesn't work. And google account won't be accessing the files there because it's not working and i don't put my files online.

    Special note is that the hard drive access light is not turning on/blinking and it doesn't have the usual slightly louder sounds when booting up. Suggestions I've found say I should try taking out the hard drive/battery and putting them back on again.

    Gonna look at the model for this laptop and see the instructions on how to do those safely. Basically a more complex "have you tried turning it on and off yet?" Only harder.

    Battery is clearly still working. It doesn't turn off when I disconnect it from the charger. So what the fuck is wrong?

    Uhh, something might’ve burnt out. Check laptop fans and see if there’s dust accumulation.

    It ain't windows 10. It's an OLD fujitsu lifebook v1020. Not sure how to check the fans.

    I think better help at this point is advice on what Hard Drive Enclosure I should buy for this, so I can recover my memory.

    I'm not even sure if it really did burn out, since it was a case of "working perfectly fine" while I used it briefly for a handful of minutes, hardly enough time to get really hot and burn up, then I put it to sleep and went back to it. And now it won't turn on properly.
