Hi @Joojo95,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
I'd be happy to help you!
I understand that you are having issues with your unit not booting.
CAUTION:
If your computer does not turn on, wait at least 5 minutes before troubleshooting the computer. Your computer might be installing an update for Windows or the BIOS or detecting new hardware. During this update process, you can expect the screen to be blank for several minutes. It might damage the computer if this process is interrupted. Do not turn off or unplug the computer during the update process.
Remove discs and devices and perform a hard reset
To determine whether you need to contact HP or troubleshoot startup issues, perform a hard reset.
NOTE: A hard reset does not affect data saved on your computer.
- Turn off the computer.
- Disconnect the AC adapter.
- Remove any discs from the disc drive.
- Remove memory cards from the card reader slot.
- Disconnect all nonessential devices such as printers, scanners, external hard drives, and USB flash drives.
- NOTE: Do not disconnect your mouse, keyboard, or monitor.
- With the AC adapter unplugged, press and hold the power button for approximately 15 seconds.
- Reconnect the AC adapter, and then turn on the computer.
- NOTE: Be sure that you use the AC adapter that was shipped with the computer.

I have tried the hard reset method but no changes. I removed both rams and cleaned it, but it still did not work. when I power the laptop on, the fan spins, the keyboard lights turn on, and the capslock light illuminates
