HP Recommended
Pavilion 15-bc500
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

When I turn the PC, the white light on the power button flashes slowly but constantly.   If the internal battery is not connected, the white light next to the power connector flashes at the same time.  If the battery is connected, this light is always on. When the power button light turns on so do the 2 internal fans but they go off when the light goes off.  Screen and/or external screen are always black.

 

If I remove the RAM, the power button light stays on but the caps lock light flashes a  3 + 2 code.

 

I've looked but haven't found any info on this problem, grateful for any help

Steve

Thanks for your reply. The PC is not booting at all. Fans start but then stop at same rate as the light on the power button is flashing.
