Hello,

I have an HP E24u G5 screen with my HP PC. Is it possible that the computer boots automatically when I plug in the USB-C ?
I know that this option is available on DELL PCs.
Thanks in advance.

Hello.

 

If the display provides power to your laptop via USB-C, you can enable the "power on when AC detected" option in the laptop BIOS. To enter BIOS, keep hitting F10 when the laptop is started and HP logo is shown. The setting is probably in Advanced - Boot options.

Thank you so much, I don't even know why I hadn't seen it before.
I had to deactivate the "power control" box in the "power management options" before that and then the option "power on when AC detected" was not greyed out.

Hello again,

 

Glad you got it working. And good that you also mentioned disabling Power Control in BIOS for future reference to others.
