No Bios"},"content":{"rendered":"

My wife’s Toshiba Satellite c660-125 got hit with a ransom demand virus (unknown source). This resulted in a BIOS password corruption\/not recognised. I managed to delete the corrupted BIOS password but now I have a Black Screen for my troubles. The laptop tries to start (light comes on at the front of the laptop, fan spins, HD spins and tries to load something) but after about ten seconds the HD stops. Fan is still running and all required lights are on. Just unable to load anything, and this might even mean the BIOS setup, as this was what first appeared to be hit. I have tried all the available “black screen remedies” (including trying an external monitor, change RAM etc) on the web but so far no luck<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":46},"question-category":[42],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-13122","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-windows-7"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/13122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=13122"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=13122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
