HP Pavilion - 15-bc203ng
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

HP Pavilion bc203ng does not boot anymore. Tried EVERYTHING (unplugged every peripheral/cable, tried all combinations with and without power cable or battery (according to my voltmeter, both the battery and ac adapter seem to be supplying with the specified voltage. The battery charing led is lightening when the cable is plugged in), did a power reset and also removed internal m2ssd and rams). Bios Reset is not possible as that stage is not being reached apparently (win+b has no effect).

 

Upon tapping the power button, the led on that power button lights up and turns off again after 1 second and nothing else happens. Not even the fans start moving. No other leds are blinking nor any audio signal (like beeping) emerges. Screen stays black. No further reaction at all. I can repeat this process right again for the whole day.

 

No warranty.

Is it time for a new device?

Big thanks to all of you reading this.

By the way, that led (which I called 'battery charging led' in my post) is glowing all the time even when the battery is plugged off. I guess that's normal?
