@AbangPisang, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding black screen issue!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
Since you've already tried Windows + V + Power (which resets BIOS settings), here are additional troubleshooting steps you can follow:
Perform a Hard Reset (Power Drain)
- Turn off the laptop.
- Unplug the charger and remove any external devices (USBs, peripherals).
- If the battery is removable, take it out.
- Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds.
- Reconnect the charger (but don’t insert the battery yet, if removable).
- Turn on the laptop and check if the screen works.
Try External Display
To check if the issue is with the screen:
- Connect an external monitor (via HDMI or DisplayPort).
- Press
Windows + Pand try toggling between display modes. - If the external display works, the issue might be with the laptop’s screen or display cable.
Boot into Safe Mode
If you suspect a driver issue:
- Turn off the laptop.
- Turn it on and repeatedly press F8 or Shift + F8 until the Advanced Startup Options appear.
- Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
- Choose Safe Mode and see if the display works.
- If it works, update your graphics drivers from Device Manager.
Reset BIOS (Alternative Method)
Since Windows + V + Power didn’t work, try:
- Turn off the laptop.
- Press and hold
Windows + B, then press the power button (don’t releaseWindows + Bfor 5-10 seconds). - If the BIOS recovery screen appears, follow the instructions to reset.
Perform HP Diagnostics (F2)
- Turn off the laptop.
- Turn it on and immediately press F2 repeatedly to open HP Hardware Diagnostics.
- Run the Display Test and Memory Test.
- If an error code appears, note it and check on HP’s support site.
Check RAM and Battery (Hardware Fix)
- If you're comfortable, re-seat the RAM (remove and reinsert it).
- If you recently upgraded RAM, try using the original RAM.
- If the battery is swollen or damaged, consider replacing it.
Reset Windows (If You See Anything on Screen)
If you can get into Windows Recovery Mode (Shift + Restart from a working display), you can reset Windows:
- Go to Troubleshoot > Reset this PC.
- Choose Keep my files or Remove everything (if you want a fresh start).
Let me know if you need any clarification! 😊
Take care, and have an amazing day!
