Hi @bade_1ayan,
Welcome to the HP Support Community
I understand you are facing an issue with your HP Victus laptop is experiencing a power issue, especially since the power button flashes but the system doesn't turn on. Here are some things you can try to resolve the issue, without having to touch the battery directly:
May I know
Do you see an HP Logo when you try to turn on the unit and then the screen goes blank or blue screen, If Blue screen Have observed any error message?
Or
The display is blank and the power button light flashes on and off?
Please try the following Troubleshoots steps.
1. Turn off the Unit.
2. Disconnect the AC adapter.
3. Remove any discs from the disc drive.
4. Remove memory cards from the card reader slot.
5. Disconnect all nonessential peripheral devices, such as printers, scanners, external hard drives, and USB flash drives.
6. Disconnect the AC adapter press and hold the power button for approximately 15 seconds.
7. Reconnect the AC adapter, and then turn on the computer.
Step 2
Turn off the unit and please press and hold the Windows key + letter B key and the power button together for 30 seconds after 30 seconds, 1st release the power button but keep holding the Windows key and B key for ten more seconds and then release these two keys If done correctly, you will see the display flashing once. Please attempt it thrice as this step and Restart the unit
Step3
The unit has to be turned off, Press Win+ V while holding these two keys then Press the Power button, continue to hold all three keys for 30 seconds and then release the Power button first and then release these two keys Please attempt it thrice and then you may get a Pop-Up CMOS Check and it will restart the unit
Even if you don't get a Pop-up restart the unit manually after 3 attempts.
After the above troubleshooting steps if the unit turns on its fine
if not please try the below steps
1. Check the Power Adapter
Make sure the power adapter is working properly:
- Plug the charger into a different power outlet.
- Check if the charging LED indicator near the power port turns on.
2. Inspect the Power Button
Sometimes, a faulty or stuck power button could be the cause:
- Ensure the power button is not stuck or damaged.
- Try pressing the power button repeatedly or more firmly.
3. Check for Display Issues
The system could be powered on, but there might be a display problem:
- Try connecting the laptop to an external monitor to see if there’s any display output.
