Hi @LakshmiGuduru ,

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

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

I understand the HP Pavilion Gaming laptop's power button blinks but the display does not turn on, which could indicate a few possible issues. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow to diagnose and potentially fix the problem:

Basic Troubleshooting Steps

Power Reset:

• Disconnect the laptop from any power source.
• Remove the battery if it's removable.
• Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds to drain any residual power.
• Reconnect the power adapter (but not the battery, if removable) and try turning on the laptop.

Check the RAM:

• Sometimes, reseating the RAM can help. Remove and then reinsert the RAM sticks to ensure they are properly seated.

Reset BIOS:

• Turn off the laptop.
• Press and hold the Windows + B keys, and then press and hold the Power button for 2-3 seconds.
• Release the Power button but continue to hold the Windows + B keys until the BIOS recovery screen appears.

Advanced Troubleshooting Steps

Check for Faulty Hardware:

• If you hear the fan and hard drive spinning but the screen remains black, it could be a sign of a hardware failure. This could include issues with the motherboard, graphics card, or other components.

Inspect the Power Adapter and Battery:

• Ensure that the power adapter is working correctly. Try using a different, compatible adapter if available.
• Check if the battery is charging properly. If the battery is dead or not charging, it might need to be replaced.

Perform a Hard Reset:

• For laptops with a sealed battery (non-removable), perform a hard reset by pressing and holding the power button for 15 seconds.

BIOS Update:

• If the laptop's BIOS is outdated, updating it might resolve the issue. This is typically done through the HP Support website, where you can find the latest BIOS for your model.
