Hi @oracwilson1969 ,
Welcome to The HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand you are facing a blinking white light on your HP Chromebook while charging can indicate two things:
Shipping Mode: If this is a brand new Chromebook or the battery was completely drained, it might be in "shipping mode" to conserve battery during transport. In this case, the solution is simple:
- Leave it charging: While 30 minutes is a good starting point, a completely depleted battery can take longer. Try charging it for at least 24 hours.
Deep Discharge: Even with a new charger, if the battery was very low, it might be in a deep discharge state and require more time to revive. Again, extend the charging time to at least 24 hours.
Here's what you can try:
Extended Charging: Leave your Chromebook plugged in for a full 24 hours and see if it boots up.
Hard Reset (if charging doesn't work): A hard reset can sometimes clear glitches that prevent the Chromebook from turning on. Search online for the specific hard reset method for your HP Chromebook model.
Here are some resources that might be helpful:

I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
