Hi @Budman24,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

If your HP laptop won't power on, you can try these steps to troubleshoot.

Check the Power Source:

• Ensure the power adapter is plugged in securely to both the laptop and the power outlet.
• Test the power outlet with another device to ensure it’s working.

Inspect the Power Adapter and Cable:

• Verify that the power adapter and cable are not damaged.
• If you have another compatible power adapter, try using it to see if the laptop powers on.

Perform a Hard Reset:

• Disconnect the power adapter and any connected peripherals.
• Remove the battery (if it’s removable).
• Press and hold the power button for about 15-20 seconds.
• Reconnect the power adapter (and battery if it was removed) and try turning the laptop on.

Check for LED Indicators:

• Look for any LED indicators on the laptop that show charging status or power.
• If there are no lights, the issue might be with the power adapter or internal components.

Try a Different Power Source:

• Plug the power adapter into a different outlet to rule out issues with the power source.

Check the Battery:

• If the battery is removable, try starting the laptop with just the power adapter and no battery.

Inspect for Overheating:

• Ensure the laptop is not overheating. Sometimes, overheating can cause the laptop to shut down or fail to power on.

Perform a BIOS Reset:

• If the laptop’s battery is removable, with the battery and power adapter disconnected, press and hold the power button for 30 seconds to perform a BIOS reset.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
