9750 Dead please help

Trying here as a last resort....

I've had my 9750 for almost a year and it just died on me yesterday. I was typing away on an email and the are under my left hand felt warmer than normal. I realized the fan wasn't running so I hit the Function - F2 combo to spool up the fan. There was an audible click and it rebooted. After rebooting it seemed to work fine at first but then the LCD started to blink off. The amount of time it stayed off and dark got progressivley longer. All this time I had the fan running at full speed just in case. I finished my email and shut it down. It's never come back.

When I try to power it up, the clock on the front lights up and the power light comes on... I can hear the cd/dvd come alive, but no graphics at all. No post graphics, no bios screen no nothing.

So my question is obviously if anyone has had something similar and if so what did it turn out to be?

If it is my graphics card (quadro GO 1400) where the heck could I get another one?

Same thing for the mobo for that matter?

Can parts be gotten from Clevo?

Yeah that would be nice.... But according to SAGER, Your warranty starts when they get the order not when you get your laptop.

I bought my SAGER 9750 less than one year ago thru PCTorque. I also bought and paid for the extended onsite warranty. But as we all know the extended warranty was thru a now defunct 3rd party (ATS). So not only did I shell out good money for an extended warranty that I don't have, SAGER and PCTORQUE could care less.

Now my laptop is dead and after talking to SAGER I'm shit outta luck. Evidently as far as SAGER is concerned your "FACTORY" warranty clock starts ticking when they get the order not when you get the laptop. I was flabergasted by that response and wanted to make sure I had understood correctly, so I asked the SAGER tech I was on the phone with again, "So your saying my 1 year factory warranty *doesn't* start the day I get the laptop?" to which he said, "Yes thats correct"

In my case there were all kinds of problems with the order processing at (the old) PCTorque and no one could give me a straight answer about whether or not it had even been registered with SAGER.

Then when that all got straightened out my 9750 was configured with a Quadro Go1400 which was on indefinate back order and that took another couple of weeks to come in before they could even start the build.

So here I am with a "high end" laptop that I paid hard earned cash money for including an extended onsite warranty for just this type of situation and its basically a doorstop.

On the bright side, the tech from SAGER did suggest rather helpfully that since I had no warranty anymore, go ahead and tear into it and maybe you'll find the problem!
