Hi @sonyboy67,

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 your computer is stuck on the HP Logo, Don't worry, though, as I have a few steps that should help,

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

Have you made any software or hardware changes on the PC?

Was there any update/reset interrupted recently?

When was the last time it worked (date)?

In the meantime, let's try these steps here:

Perform a Hard reset on the PC and then use an external keyboard and check if the PC boots into the Bios using F10.

Please follow the steps suggested in the guided troubleshooter for No Power or No Boot Troubleshooter - Click here

If the issue persists, I would suggest you turn off the PC and then open the panel and remove the cable from the back of the hard drive and turn on the PC and check if it boots into the Bios using F10.

If the PC boots into the Bios with the hard drive disconnected, this clearly indicates an issue with the hard drive. In this scenario, I would suggest you contact our HP phone support for available service options.

For more details, please follow the steps suggested in the support document for - Computer Does Not Start (Windows 7) - Click here

Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you.
