Laptop Black Screen

Ok, I've had this laptop for quite a while but I never bothered to ask anyone their opinion on the matter.

So, everything was ok until one morning where I turned on the laptop and the laptop started freezing at the windows logo. So I played around in the BIOS, changed some settings, and now the laptop won't display anything.

It boots up, but there's nothing.

Things I've done.

- Connected to an external monitor
- Hard reset through the power button

Things I haven't.

- I can't seem to be able to reset the BIOS since the laptop doesn't display anything. I am able to open up the laptop, but I don't think it has a CMOS battery like the desktop computers.

Any help would be appreciated. The laptop is Lenovo G50-75 I believe.

Ouch, is it possible the board is shot? do you get any activity lights off the laptop or hear the drive mounting at all?
Edit: Considering its a Lenovo possible the CMOS battery is soldered onto the board
I know it sounds stupid but try taking the battery out and holding the power button for a minute then restart it up see if anything changes . My laptop has had similar issues with my monitor going black GFX drivers crashing and shit. I usually take my battery out and restart it and it fixes itself.

The CMOS is soldered to the motherboard.

Also, I've tried holding down the button and stuff. I am thinking bad RAM memory, but I don't have another stick to try it.
