Hi @phlupcke,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
When an HP OMEN Laptop 17-CKxxx does not start and shows no signs of power despite a working power supply, several potential issues could be causing this problem. Here's a step-by-step guide to diagnose and potentially resolve the issue:
Basic Troubleshooting Steps
Power Cycle the Laptop:
- Disconnect the laptop from the power supply.
- Remove the battery if it is removable.
- Press and hold the power button for at least 15-20 seconds.
- Reconnect the power supply (without the battery if it was removable) and try turning on the laptop.
Check for Loose Connections:
- Ensure the power connector is firmly plugged into the laptop.
- Inspect the power cord for any visible damage or fraying.
Inspect the Power Port and Adapter:
- Check the laptop's power port for any debris or damage.
- Use a different, known-working power adapter to rule out issues with the power supply.
Advanced Troubleshooting
If the basic steps do not resolve the issue, consider the following:
Reset the CMOS:
- If you are comfortable opening your laptop, you can try resetting the CMOS battery. This often involves removing a small battery on the motherboard for a few minutes and then replacing it.
Check for a Faulty Component:
- Remove any peripherals (external mouse, keyboard, USB devices) and try starting the laptop.
- If you recently upgraded any hardware (RAM, SSD), revert to the original configuration to see if the new component is causing the issue.
Inspect the Battery and Internal Connections:
- If the battery is removable, try starting the laptop with the battery removed but connected to AC power.
- Open the laptop (if you are comfortable doing so) and check for any loose internal cables or connections.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
