Updating the BIOS is recommended as standard maintenance of the computer. It can also help resolve the following issues:

  • An available BIOS update resolves a specific issue or improves computer performance.
  • The current BIOS does not support a hardware component or a Windows upgrade.
  • HP Support recommends installing a specific BIOS update.

Hello @dblackmanc1950 

 

Information:

The battery could be deeply discharged or has an electronic defect, could even be a short circuit. This can also happen with new batteries.

In all cases, the BMS (battery management system) refuses the charging process for safety reasons

 

Please follow instructions and answer questions exactly.

 

(1) Can you do a test? Start the notebook as before without the battery. If Windows is started, insert the battery.

(2) What happens now?

(3) What does the battery icon in Windows show in the lower right corner?

(4) If the notebook can be operated normally, leave it on for at least 10 minutes. Then turn off the notebook. Wait 2 minutes and then turn it back on.

(5) What happens now?

This is a brand new battery. I put it in the laptop and charged it for 24 hours before trying to use it. I will try your next test and get back to you.

HP Recommended

When I insert the battery I hear a little click, the screen going black and the small white light on key pad goes out. All appears dead.
