The light in the on/off key turns on - then a few seconds later turns off. I've removed and reinstalled the battery,
and I've help the power button down for 2 to 3 minutes. Nothing is working.
Help..

Hi @Max-Coyote-S,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
It sounds like you're experiencing some issues with your HP Omen 17 laptop. If the power button light turns on and then off after a few seconds, it could indicate a hardware or power-related problem. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
Check the Power Adapter:
- Ensure that the power adapter is working properly. You can test it by using a multimeter to check the voltage output.
- Try using a different power outlet to rule out issues with the outlet.
Hard Reset:
- Disconnect the laptop from the power source.
- Remove the battery.
- Press and hold the power button for about 15-20 seconds.
- Reconnect the battery and power adapter, then try turning on the laptop.
Memory (RAM) and Storage:
- Sometimes, faulty RAM or storage can cause boot issues. Try reseating the RAM modules or using a spare if available.
External Devices:
- Disconnect all external devices (USB drives, external hard drives, etc.) and try booting the laptop.
BIOS/UEFI Update:
- Check if there's a BIOS/UEFI update available for your laptop on the HP support website. If so, try updating the BIOS.
Boot in Safe Mode:
- If your laptop is not booting into Windows, try booting in safe mode. This can help identify if a driver or software issue is causing the problem.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
