Hello,

normally, I don't use my notebook's intern monitor but two extern monitors.
So I want to boot my notebook easier so that I don't have to open the notebook and push the power button.

My goal is to boot the notebook automatically when I start charging it, so I search in the BIOS for options like  "Power On by AC" or "Auto Power On" but cannot find any similar options.

How can I achieve this?

 

My system infos:

- Notebook: HP 250 G7

- BIOS: InsydeH20 F.53 (Rev 5.0), 27.11.2025

- OS: Windows 11

 

Thank you in advance

Daniel

@dlsn, Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding the HP 250 G7 NoteBook. 

 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution. We hope our assistance has been helpful! 

 

To configure your HP 250 G7 Notebook to automatically power on when charging begins, you may need to change some settings in the BIOS. Follow the steps below:

 

  1. Enter BIOS Setup:

    • Turn on or restart your notebook.
    • As soon as the notebook starts, press the Esc key repeatedly until the Startup Menu opens.
    • Press F10 to enter the BIOS Setup Utility.
  2. Navigate to Boot Options:

    • Once in the BIOS, use the arrow keys to navigate to the "Boot Options" menu.
  3. Check for Power Options:

    • In the Boot Options or a related menu, look for a setting related to power management, such as "Power On when AC Detected" or "Wake on AC".
    • If available, enable this feature.
  4. Save and Exit:

    • Press F10 to save your changes and exit the BIOS Setup. Confirm if prompted.
  5. Test the Configuration:

    • After saving and exiting the BIOS, turn off the notebook. Connect the charger to see if the notebook starts automatically when charging begins.

Note: Not all BIOS versions or models have the option to power on the device automatically when connected to a power source. If you do not see these settings, it may not be supported on your particular model.

 

I hope this helps!

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
