@Marinistis, 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 OMEN by HP 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC is not turning on and only shows a black screen, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:

Power Cycle the Laptop:

  • Disconnect all external devices and peripherals.
  • Hold the power button for about 30 seconds to ensure the laptop is completely powered down.
  • Reconnect the charger and try to turn it on again.

Check the AC Adapter and Battery:

  • Ensure that the AC adapter is connected properly and that the power outlet is functioning.
  • Try using a different AC adapter if possible to rule out the possibility of a faulty charger.
  • If your laptop has a removable battery, try temporarily removing it and using just the AC adapter.

Inspect the DC Jack:

  • Ensure that the adapter barrel connector is inserted properly into the DC jack. Incorrect insertion can trigger embedded controller protection, preventing charging or powering on.

Reset the Embedded Controller:

  • After powering off, press and hold the power button for more than 10 seconds to try resetting the Embedded Controller (EC).

Also, you may refer to these guides:

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
