HP Stream 11; 2016 model
Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

HP Stream 11; 2016 model. Installed a few updates, then tried to install the BIOS update (Intel Processor). Failed. Now the computer will not shut down, no matter what I try (holding down power button, etc). Nothing. Unit is plugged in, battery will not charge (50% left). Will not connect to any website except HP assistant. Should I just let the battery die and see what happens? Battery is sealed; I can't remove it either. Power button is useless. Help!!!!!

This solution doesn't work for all computer.  Computers have a dead battery plug back in to power and when powering the computer is still flashing.  Anybody have another solution?

@SG_IT-Tech1 Welcome to HP Community!

 

I understand that the HP Stream 11 will not responsive.

 

Don't worry I'd like to help you out.

 

Did you make any hardware or software changes on your PC?

 

Have you tried checking with a different adapter?

 

Splendid analysis and remarkable patience shown. It is immensely appreciated.

 

Check if the pin inside the DC (Charging) port is bent or broken.

 

Try plugging the adapter into a different wall outlet and check if it helps.

 

Please try the steps recommended below.

  1. Disconnect all peripheral devices and remove all USB devices and media cards. You want to test the computer not the accessories!

  2. Disconnect the AC power adapter and then press and hold the power button for at least 15 seconds.

  3. Reconnect the AC power adapter (but do not connect the battery), Press the Power button, Look for glowing LEDs near caps lock and num lock keys, and Listen for sounds of a disk drive and fan turning.
