HP Notebook - 15-bw011dx

I need help with my laptop. My laptop has been acting up for months now. It doesn’t let me do anything. When I turn on the laptop it just turns back off after 2 or 3 seconds and it repeats almost as if it was boot loop im not sure what it is. There is no HP logo when I do this. I’ve tried everything like resetting my laptop but it always says there’s a problem resetting it. I’ve tried downloading windows 10 again and use the usb drive to boot it up and this static screen pops up. And the laptop seems to do like a beep noise here and there. What do I do?

Hi, @Surmise 

 

Yes, that model has a quirk of some sort that won't let you clean install W10.

 

However, if you use the HP cloud recovery tool to create a bootable USB recovery drive, that usually works for some reason.

 

Here is a link for how to use that utility.  You will need to use another PC running W7 64 bit or newer and a 32 GB USB flash drive.

Hi, @Surmise it looks like a hardware problem. Is your warranty still valid?

 

Also, see if you can reach HP Support for further assistance.
