Lenovo Thinkpad 16 G6 - unresponsive black screen. Can't even enter BIOS.

EDIT: I had a brainfart and wrote THINKPAD instead of THINKBOOK into the title. My bad

Hey there, I am facing a pretty frustrating issie with my Lenovo Thinkbook 16 G6.

After the last windows update, no matter how many times I reboot, the laptop will be just stuck at black screen. The keyboard lights up and I can sort of see the backlight but the screen will remain black. There is not even any logo startup screen, nothing. I do hear the fans working tho.

I tried to connect it to external monitor in case it was just display issue but it shows up as completely blank/no signal as well.

Worse, I can't even enter BIOS! F2, power button + f2, nothing works.

I have already tried unplugging, holding the power button down for 60 seconds (it doesn't seem to work tho, since it just keeps repeatedly turning the laptop on and off in a loop while I hold it down?) and clicking the little reset button with a pin on the bottom of laptop. The battery itself is also not removeable btw.

Any idea how to fix this? I have some important data on my laptop and I would hate to lose em. :(

Thanks in advance!
