Thank you for joining the HP Support Community

 

Let's check if the issue persists in BIOS.

 

Follow the below steps to boot into BIOS page.

 

1. Turn on or restart the computer.

2. While the display is blank, press the f10 key to enter the BIOS.

 

If the issue persists in BIOS this is a hardware issue.

 

If the BIOS page is working fine 

 

Run the windows troubleshooter.

  • Run the troubleshooter. When it's done, it's best practice to restart your device. Then check for new updates. Go to Start  > Settings  > Update & Security  > Windows Update . Select Check for updates and install any available updates.

Click on this link: Download Update Troubleshooter for Windows 7 and Windows 8

 

Also, download and run the HP Support Assistant 

 

 

HP Support Assistant helps keep your HP computer in working order by finding updates and providing troubleshooting tools.
