  • Hi, I am having the exact same problem with Samsung Notebook 9 Pro. This device is only a few yet, yet the screen has randomly gone black. The power supply & AC adapter works fine. The OEM battery was replaced a few months ago and basically, it's like the PC went to sleep but will never wake up again. The PC worked perfectly prior to this.

I have some electronics experience but the Samsung notebooks are very difficult to work on bc everything is soldered together & the battery is internal. I can tell that the LED panel is not lighting up, & I don't hear the fans coming on. When you close & open the laptop, nothing happens. The LED lights that indicate the charger are working though. it's green/ fully charged, then turns blue when I touch the power on button, but the screen doesn't come on & the PC doesn't boot. I've hooked it up to other monitors & Samsung TV as well, & none of those work. 

 

What should be done to fix ASAP please? This is my primary work machine.

Ctrl + Alt + Del is a key combination that can wake a Windows computer screen. It reboots Windows and could help your laptop startup correctly.

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! I would recommend that if the information from @MrGhoul does not help then you can also try the troubleshooting from the following link: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01209064/.

 

If none of this helps then this will require service. Depending on your warranty you will have a few options.

- If your device was recently purchased, you can check with your retailer on their return/exchange processes.
- If you have an extended warranty you can reach out to them to have service processed. 
- If you're within the one year warranty, you can Private message me or one of our moderators or you can call in directly at 1-800- 726-7864 with your full model and serial number to have service setup
- If you're OUT of warranty, for depot type products (Soundbars, Home Theater Systems, tablets, ect.) that require to be shipped we recommend you speak with our depot team for pricing and to have the service set up: 1-310-669-4334.
