Hi @AlamarahBob,

Thank you for showing your interest in HP Support Forums. It is a great place to find the help you need, from other users, HP experts, and other support personnel. For you to have the best experience on the HP forum, you could also visit our HP Forums Guide for the First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.

As I understand the computer is not booting into the windows anymore,

To provide an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

What is the Operating System installed on the PC?

What is the sequence of the blinks? (Example: 3 blinks and then pause 3 blinks again, in a loop)

Have you made any changes on the PC before the issue started?

Have you performed any steps on your own before posting on the HP Forums?

Please click on the below links once you identify the blink code and resolve the issue:
