#133 I had the same problem, model NP700Z3C-S03ES, bios number XX01. I tried to launch Acronis True Image boot CD to backup my HD. After reboot, my laptop was bricked.
So I followed Don's advices: 1. Unplug it 2. open the back of the laptop 3. disconnect the CMOS battery and I added another step: 4. disconnect battery (by pressing battery button) After 2 min, I tried to boot and... voilĂ !! It boots again!!! Que respiro.... :D -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
