Power light turns on for a couple seconds then goes out and back on for about 2-3 seconds then off.

So the computer stopped turning on a couple weeks ago and I've been trying to remedy the problem with no success. The power cord works as the light was orange until the battery was charged when it turned white like normal. The power light will turn on but the computer will not boot. The power light comes on for about 2 seconds then goes out and back on for about 2 more seconds then out and does not come back on unless I press the button again. I can hear some noise when the button is pressed but not sure what I'm hearing. I know this is an older computer but I'd like to try to get a little more use out of it if I can.

@EDG3E1 Have you attempted to connect the device to an alternate power cord or adapter?

Or check with another wall outlet, excluding any surge protectors to check if it works?

Alright, here's the best way to revive the laptop, using the HP Guided Troubleshooter:

Thank you for the reply. The video has the reset directions for other computers but not the ENVY X360 Convertible. I have tried pressing the power button and holding the windows and b keys with no success. I don't know if there is anything else that can be done.
