Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

Plugged charger into laptop and heard a pop, computer shut off and now will not turn back on. Removed battery, tried a hard reset, nothing. If i plug the charger in, the “charging light” doesn’t come on.

Greetings!
 
Welcome to the HP Support Community. This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries. I have reviewed your post and I understand, the computer is not powering on.

 

Appreciate you trying the steps. Don't worry, I'm here to help! To better assist you - Have you tried connecting the computer to an alternate AC Adapter? 

 

While you respond to that, let's try these steps -

 

1) Shutdown the computer. 
2) Unplug all the Adapter and peripherals connected. 
3) Remove the Battery. 
4) Press and hold down the power button for 15 to 20 seconds. 
5) Plug-in the Adapter and put the Battery back into the computer. 
6) Try to turn on the computer.
