Not every issue is covered under the standard Hardware Warranty. Purchased Care Pack Warranties differ by contract.
HP is not a "general" repair facility: Requests for out-of-warranty repairs are usually not accepted.
If the problem is hardware, if your device is in Warranty, if your device is Registered, and you cannot submit your case to Support, let us know and we will forward a request.
Important
Never post private information in the HP Community!
Thieves are waiting - do not just hand out your privacy to their keeping.
HP Support does not free-post phone numbers for HP Support on the Internet.
Your computer is not full of bugs and you do not need to pay a fee for driver support.
Do not be a victim.
Stay vigilant.
