This document is for HP Notebook PCs with Windows 7, Vista, and XP.

This certificate lists the symptoms you run into if the calculator does not start, provides an overview of the consummate troubleshooting process, and links to other documents with step-past-step details to restore the computer to proper functioning. If your computer does not startup or boot into Windows, use this document to troubleshoot and correct the trouble.

Perform a hard reset

If the computer suddenly fails to startup properly, perform a hard reset as the first action. Performing the hard reset might correct many problems. If the computer still does not start properly, select your symptom from the listing beneath to guide y'all to the recommended cosmetic actions.

Disconnect all peripheral devices and remove all USB devices and SD media cards.
Disconnect the Air-conditioning power adapter, remove the battery, then printing and concur the power button for at least fifteen seconds to drain all residual ability and restore default startup settings.
Reconnect the AC power adapter (simply practise non insert the battery), printing the Power button, look for glowing lights nigh the caps lock and num lock keys, and listen for sounds of a fan or other moving parts turning.

If the reckoner starts normally after performing a hard reset, you are done troubleshooting. Otherwise, select the symptom below that best describes your consequence and perform the troubleshooting steps provided.

Symptom: LED lights practice non glow, display is black, figurer does not start

If no power is available to the computer, lights on the reckoner do not emit light, there is no fan racket, and the computer does non outset. There are several things you can practise to verify that power is available to the figurer.

Symptom	Possible Cause
When y'all press the power push: notebook does not react, brandish is blackness, LED lights exercise non glow, and there are no sounds.	Failed Ac adapter or power cord, a discharged or damaged battery, a bad connection to the notebook, or a failed notebook system board component.

Symptom

Possible Cause

When y'all press the power push: notebook does not react, brandish is blackness, LED lights exercise non glow, and there are no sounds.

Failed Ac adapter or power cord, a discharged or damaged battery, a bad connection to the notebook, or a failed notebook system board component.

Common actions to resolve no ability issues

If the figurer does not start, the LED lights do not glow, and the display is black, y'all can perform i or more of the following deportment to resolve the issue.

Verify the reckoner is receiving ability from the AC adapter.

Verify that the AC adapter is not damaged and is connected correctly to a working wall outlet plug. Verify AC power is connected to the system board by examining the Ac adapter, wiring, and pivot connection for damage. The keyboard LEDs glow when Air-conditioning power is connected to the system board.

Damaged components, like the AC adapter or the pivot in the power connector, require an HP-certified repair.
Use a unlike AC power adapter.

If you have admission to a different AC adapter or power pack that is designed for the figurer, connect it and endeavor to start the figurer. If yous own or have access to more than ane notebook, verify that you are using the adapter which belongs to this computer.

circumspection:
Using a power adapter that does non meet the power requirements or has the wrong type of connector might damage the figurer. On newer computers, connecting the wrong adapter might crusade the power LED lights to blink simply not ability the computer.
Remove the battery and kick on AC power only.
A discharged or defective bombardment might prevent the AC adapter from supplying plenty ability to kickoff the figurer. To verify that power from the AC adapter is available to the calculator, remove the bombardment, connect AC power adapter, and press the power button. If available, endeavour using a different AC adapter that is rated for the computer, and echo this exam.
- If the LEDS do not glow and the fan or difficult bulldoze do non spin, the Air-conditioning adapter might need to be replaced.
- If the LEDs glow and the computer boots, the bombardment might need to be replaced.
Remove the Air conditioning adapter and startup on bombardment ability only.
A defective AC adapter does not charge the battery and prevents the computer from starting up on battery power only. To verify that bombardment power is available for the calculator, connect the AC power adapter, allow the battery to charge for 30 minutes or more, disconnect the power adapter and press the Power push. If bachelor, endeavour using a fully charged battery of the same blazon from some other computer, and repeat this test.
- If the LEDS do not glow and the fan or difficult drive do not spin, the battery might need to be replaced.
- If tests of both the battery and the Ac adapter fail, in that location might exist a problem with the system board requiring service by HP.
- If the LEDs glow and the estimator starts, the Ac adapter might need to exist replaced.

Symptom: LEDs glimmer or estimator beeps but does not start

Symptom	Possible Cause
When you lot press the power button, some of the LED lights on the keyboard blink or a beep tone is made to help identify specific hardware component errors.	Beep tones or blinking LEDs on startup usually point a problem with the basic functionality of a critical component, and y'all might need technical aid to resolve the mistake. The most unremarkably used LEDs are those located nigh the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys. The number of blinks or beep tones in a series is used past a technician to assistance diagnose a problem with specific hardware components. The number of blinks or beep tones and their meaning is different for different computers.
When a new computer is used for beginning fourth dimension, the white LED light for the Air conditioning power connector blinks.	Battery is notwithstanding in "Shipping Manner." The light continues to blink even when Ac ability is connected. To resolve this, turn off notebook, connect Air-conditioning power and allow the battery to charge for at least 30 minutes, and then showtime computer.

Glimmer codes and beep tone codes have a similar purpose but the number of blinks or beeps does not indicate the same error weather condition. The codes are specific to private models, and yous need to know your exact model number.

Common actions to resolve LED blink or beep tone mistake code

When at that place is a startup problem and y'all see LED lights on the keyboard blink a few times, or hear beep tones, do the post-obit actions:

Press the power push button to turn on the computer and expect for blinking LED lights on the keyboard, or listen for beep tones.
