Windows how 15

It's a pretty bulky laptop and it's making a fan noise every time I power it on and the screen is pitch black no light coming from it at all.

 

I messed up the product name it's a Windows hp 15.

I tried to use auto correct

@Dgame426 Here's what you need to do, to identify the issue and resolve it accordingly:

  • check if it works fine on an external monitor, if you don't have one, check if it works in the BIOS screen to identify if it's either a hardware or a software issue:
    • If it works fine on the BIOS (Accessed while tapping F10 during a restart) it's a software issue & I suggest performing a hard reset: click here for steps,
    • Once done, it should have a display, if it does, log into safe mode & create new user account to check if that works better, for starters)
    • However, if it doesn't work within the BIOS either, I'm afraid it's a hardware malfunction.
