Hi,
My notebook has been behaving strange since several months. It would crash regularly, sometimes just shutting off or giving me a BSOD. It would always just restart like normal after these crashes. But last friday it did not boot anymore. When I press the on/off button, the power LED is on and the CAPS LOCK led is flashing regularly. I do not hear the ventilator spinning, nor does the screen turn on.
Would this be a motherboard failure or something else?
Thanks,

Hi
It suspects there is some hardware failure with the notebook.
There is always a pattern for led blinks in caps lock, below are some common blink codes:
1 >> CPU
2 >> BIOS
3 >> Memory
4 >> Graphics
5 >> System Board
Troubleshooting you can perform
>> Remove Power adapter, battery & all external components like: usb devices - Network cable... etc.
>> Press and hold power button for 15-20 seconds without connecting any above mention compnonets.
>> Insert power adapter only & try to power On.
>> If issue persist, please contact HP.
