Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My name is Garrett... Just bought a gaming computer, running Windows 10 on it. It states plugged in, not charging when I plug the charger into the laptop. I have no idea what to do or how to fix it. I got it yesterday (9/15/19). I haven't dropped it, misused it, or anything really. It just states that it isn't charging when plugged in. Can anyone help?

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Please let us know the Product details or the Model Number of your Computer.

 

Let's perform a power reset on your Computer: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c01684768

 

If the issue persists, follow the steps below.

 

Test the AC adapter using the UEFI Hardware Diagnostic tests

If the computer starts and you would like to test the AC adapter, use the following steps:

  1. Make sure the power cord and adapter is connected to the system and wall outlet.

  2. Press and hold the power button until the computer turns off completely.

  3. Turn on the computer.

  4. Immediately press the F2 key repeatedly, about once every second, until the UEFI Hardware Diagnostics screen is displayed.

  5. In the UEFI Main menu, select Component Tests.

    If the AC Adapter fails the test, write down the information/error and let us know the error.
