You could try connecting an external monitor in case the problem is
onboard display. If you are seeing some LED flickering due to disk
activity, that could indicated that you have progressed beyond BIOS
initialization and are into the OS boot sequence.

My laptop, a Lenovo y50-70 black screened yesterday, I presume during
an automated windows update.
It wont boot and I cant even get into the bios to see what's up. On
boot a few leds go on (power, battery) the disk light flickers for a
1.5 seconds then flashes on and off each second. No other response.
Lenovo doesnt seem to have a copy of the bios code I could download
and reflash my bios with.
Any ideas?
I am presuming that the bios is corrupted. Does anyone have suggestions?
