What were the symptoms? Firmware corrupted? As in BIOS/UEFI? Did this happen randomly?

The symptoms were the internal display went black after an automatic firmware update (you can't disable firmware updates, they happen automatically) and never came on again, and then external display also went black after working only once. The device would power on, you would hear the fans running, but there was no display and no startup chime.
