Hello guys,
I have got a problem with my notebook (HP Envy 15-1090eg, Windows 7 64-Bit). Sometimes I can boot and use it normally. But often, it doesnot boot. The display is black and nothing (like a fan or anything) starts. There is only the LED of the power button, which is blinking one time every 5 seconds (and the LED near the power cable plugin). What could it be?
I think the problem appears less often, if I plug off the power cable and the battery and just plug in the cable, when I want to start the laptop.
Thanks in advance!
