Do him a favor and break the laptop, then give him a nice ol' desktop instead :)

Disconnect (if necessary), turn off, and turn the thing upside down. Remove memory and HDD. Put them back in, making sure to plug them well. Turn it on again and whether it works or not be sure to tell your friend to use a cooling pad from now on. All noteboks and netbooks and crap are doomed to an untimely heat-death unless you use something like that.

Hey there, my friend gave me his laptop because it's broken, when you start it, only black screen appear, BIOS works and it passed memtest without error. It's Packard Bell EasyNote TS with Windows 7 OEM, I tried to use recovery with pressing Alt + F10 at boot, recovery started without any problem and after it was done, it restarted and same black screen appeared again, but my friend also had Recovery CDs, so I changed boot to CD and recovery started again, but then it restarted and same black screen appeared. I'm pretty hopeless how to fix this. Does anyone know what to do?
