Hi @Vishalkaveri,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

I understand your HP Victus Gaming Laptop 16-inch powers on (you hear fans or lights come on), but the screen stays black. Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

Step-by-Step Fix for Black Screen on Boot

1. Perform a Hard Reset

This clears any temporary hardware issues:

  • Turn off the laptop completely.
  • Disconnect the power adapter.
  • Press and hold the power button for 15 seconds.
  • Reconnect the power adapter and try turning it on again.


2. Try an External Monitor

To check if the issue is with the display:

  • Connect your laptop to an external monitor or TV via HDMI.
  • Power on the laptop and press Windows + P a few times to toggle display modes.
  • If the external display works, the issue may be with the laptop screen or display cable.


3. BIOS Recovery

HP laptops support BIOS recovery even with a black screen:

  • Turn off the laptop.
  • Press and hold Windows + B, then press and hold the Power button for 2–3 seconds.
  • Release the power button but keep holding Windows + B for another 10 seconds.
  • If successful, the BIOS recovery screen should appear.


4. Check for Beep Codes or LED Blink Patterns

  • If the laptop is beeping or blinking (e.g., caps lock or power LED), count the beeps or blinks.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
