My Caps lock is blinking without any particular pattern. My screen and everything else is still functioning as normal.

@Raunak_10, Welcome to HP Support Community,
Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue
If your HP Pavilion laptop's Caps Lock light is blinking, but the system is otherwise working normally, here’s a breakdown of possible causes and what you can do:
Power Reset
Shut down your laptop.
Unplug it and remove any peripherals (mouse, USB devices, etc.).
Hold the power button for 15 seconds.
Plug it back in and boot up.
This clears residual charge and can sometimes fix keyboard controller glitches.
HP Diagnostics
Restart your laptop and press Esc repeatedly, then press F2 to enter HP Hardware Diagnostics.
Run the keyboard test and system tests.
If there's a hardware issue, it might show here.
Update BIOS and Drivers
Go to the HP Software and Driver Downloads page.
Search for your model and install the latest:
BIOS update
Keyboard drivers
HP System Event Utility
Chipset drivers
Check for Accessibility Settings
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard.
Make sure Sticky Keys, Toggle Keys, or other features are not turned on.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps.
Take care and have a good day.
