Hello, I attempted to flash a modded bios to my Compal Hel80 laptop to enable virtualization (which is supported by the Intel core 2duo). But I must of flashed a corrupted or just plain the wrong bios. Which lead to a black screen and no ability to boot.
So I headed to the "Phoenix Bios Recovery" in Bios Mods. I made the wincrisis drive (Which was formatted to FAT16) with the CORRECT bios, and I did the standard procedure of remove the battery and AC power, Plugged in the USB (which unfortunately had no LEDs so I couldn't tell if the bios flashed or not). reinserted the battery, pressed and held down fn+b then plugged in the AC power which made the screen and laptop LEDs flash. Then held the power button to turn on the laptop, no LEDs came on and the fan didn't stop which was supposed to happen according to the "Phoenix Bios Recovery" in Bios Mods. The screen didn't turn on and the fans didn't stop so I left it for a while to do its thing. 30 mins later it was still was going and the "Phoenix bios recovery" on bios mods says that it might not reboot so I just turned it off. Praying that it would boot onto the bios, I turned it on and annoyingly Still black screen. I do not know what do know what to do from here. Happy to answer questions.
