Laptop not turning on properly

[RUTESHCHANDRA]

Hi, today when I turn on my Victus, the power button turns on for 1-3 seconds and then turns off. When the power button glows for 1-3 seconds, the screen's brightness turns on and then dims.

Hi @RUTESHCHANDRA 

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for posting your query! We're here to help you get back up and running.

It sounds like your Victus by HP 15-fb0000 is experiencing a power issue, possibly related to the battery, motherboard, or BIOS settings. Since the power button lights up briefly and the screen dims, let's go through some troubleshooting steps.

1. Perform a Hard Reset

• Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery (if removable).
• Hold the power button for 30 seconds.
• Reconnect the battery and power adapter, then try turning on the laptop.

2. Check for Overheating or Loose Connections

• If your laptop was running hot before shutting down, let it cool for 10 minutes.
• Open the bottom panel (if comfortable) and check for loose RAM or SSD connections.

3. Update BIOS (if possible)

• If the laptop powers on briefly, try accessing BIOS by pressing F10 repeatedly.
• If you can enter BIOS, update it using the latest version from HP’s support page.

4. Test with a Different Charger

• If possible, try using a different HP-compatible charger.
• A faulty charger or power brick could be preventing proper startup.

5. Run HP Hardware Diagnostics

• Restart your laptop and press Esc repeatedly.
• Select F2 for System Diagnostics.
• Run a battery and motherboard test.

 

Let me know how it goes, and I’ll be happy to assist further!
