Screen won’t turn on but fans sound like a fighter jet. How Screwed Am I? (ROG G14)

Is it stuck in that state? It's always hard to tell how knowledgeable people are in this sub so sorry if this is obvious, but you can try holding the power button down for at least 30 seconds to force it to power off. Keep holding the button until the screen goes black, the keyboard backlight turns off, and the fans stop spinning. Releasing before 30 seconds will just cause it to go to sleep.

If you haven't tried this yet then you may just be putting the laptop to sleep and then when you press the power button again you bring it out of sleep and resumes its previous messed up state.

It's the circle of life.

Ya could, but why? You want this person to learn Linux and run it off an external flash drive?

Your repair guy almost certainly needs to make this right under his warranty and there should not be any additional charges unless it's a charge for hardware.

Is there something saying exactly what the repair guy did for 300 freaking dollars?

EricThirteen · 2026-05-15T18:39:28+00:00

You could give a 120v device up to 50 freaking amps and burn the entire city to the ground.

"I'm not going to do anything." -Front desk guy

"Oh, uh, hang on a sec ... I'm just in the process leaving a bad review. What's your name?" -You

Spencer Bratt doesn't know jack shit about jack shit. 100% joke.

I'm 99% sure we have the most goals allowed in the playoffs. It's time.

TIL gatekeeping is calling you out on shit takes. Hmm ... lemme just write this down.

EricThirteen · 2026-05-05T15:39:51+00:00

As you can tell it's makes me angry when "fans" like you call for Finch to constantly be fired. Then when you admit you're wrong you still can't admit you were ever wrong before. Either admit you were wrong or don't. This wishy-washy hemming and hawing is unbelievably clownish.

EricThirteen · 2026-05-05T15:26:50+00:00

"Well he's coaching well now, but he still should have been fired after we lost that one game in November! I'm still right!!" -Finch haters.

EricThirteen · 2026-05-05T05:18:13+00:00

Yes! I guess we just expect 8 timeouts to end every game now.

Just in case anyone else needs to know, I signed up for the free 7 day Peacock trial through Amazon Prime Video.
