pls, provide more analysis. This is too easy and not helpful. Anybody can say that, informed or not informed, experienced or not. Sorry. Stupidly going into some repair shop is a perfect way to get robbed for the maximum they think you can afford. Many Thanks!

It sounds like a bad motherboard. You will need to bring it to a local repair shop to have it looked at.
