[kristiroyalty33]

My laptop power light turns on then goes off after a few seconds. Yesterday i tried the f10 after pushing the power button and it loaded the bios menu but i didnt know what to do after that.  I exited and it brought it to windows. Thinking whatever was fixed i cut it off and plugged in the charger. Go to power on today, dame issue with no turning on and power light coming on and going off. Tried the f10 agaib, nothing. I tried hard reset and boot to bios using windows +b and power button but no luck either. What do I do?

Hi @kristiroyalty33,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

It sounds like your HP Pavilion Gaming 15 is experiencing a power or boot issue. Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem.

Check Power Supply:

• Ensure that the power adapter and charging cable are working properly. Check for any visible damage to the cable.
• Try using a different power outlet and, if possible, a different power adapter to see if the issue persists.

Perform a Hard Reset:

• Disconnect all external devices (USB drives, printers, external monitors, etc.).
• Disconnect the power adapter.
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds to discharge any residual power in the system.
• Reconnect the power adapter and try to turn on the laptop.

Battery Reset:

• If your laptop has a removable battery, remove it and press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
• Reinstall the battery, connect the power adapter, and try to power on the laptop.

BIOS Recovery:

• Power off the laptop.
• Press and hold the Windows + B keys (or Windows + V if Windows + B doesn't work).
• While holding the keys, press and hold the power button for 2-3 seconds, then release the power button but continue holding the Windows + B keys until the BIOS recovery screen appears.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to perform a BIOS recovery.

Check RAM:

• If you're comfortable opening your laptop, check the RAM modules. Sometimes reseating the RAM (removing and reinserting it) can resolve boot issues.
• Ensure the RAM is properly seated in its slot.

External Monitor:

• Connect your laptop to an external monitor to see if the display is the issue. If the external monitor works, there might be a problem with your laptop's display or internal connections.

Inspect for Beep Codes:

• When you power on the laptop, listen for any beep codes. These can indicate specific hardware issues.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
