Hi @cj235,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be glad to help you! 

 

I'm sorry to hear that your HP 15-d017cl Notebook PC isn't powering on—dealing with a non-responsive laptop can be really frustrating, especially after trying multiple solutions. Let’s try to figure this out together.

 

  • When you press the power button, do you see any LED indicator lights or hear any fan noise at all?
  • Have you recently experienced any power surges, overheating, or physical damage to the laptop?

 

Perform a Hard Reset Again (Without Battery):

  • Disconnect the charger and remove the battery (if removable).
  • Press and hold the power button for 30-60 seconds to discharge residual power.
  • Reinsert the battery and plug in the charger, then try turning it on.

Check the Power Adapter and Battery:

  • Ensure your power adapter is working by testing it on another HP device if possible.
  • If the adapter is fine, try booting the laptop without the battery installed, using only the AC power.

Inspect for Display Issues:

  • Sometimes, the laptop might power on, but the screen remains black. Try shining a flashlight on the screen to see if a faint image appears.
  • Connect an external monitor to check if it's a display issue.

Check for Overheating or Loose Components:

  • If your laptop previously overheated, it may have triggered a thermal shutdown. Let it cool down for a while before trying again.
  • Open the RAM and storage compartments (if accessible) and reseat them securely.

BIOS Recovery Attempt:

  • Press and hold the Windows + B keys, then press the power button for a few seconds.
  • If the BIOS recovery screen appears, follow the on-screen instructions to restore the BIOS.

 

If none of these steps work, it could indicate a deeper hardware issue, such as a failed motherboard or power circuit, which might need a service. 

 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance
